Our Vision

"To create healthier and safer environments by reducing the accessibility and availability of alcohol to underage persons."

Our Mission

"In order to change policies that govern the way alcohol is marketed to, sold to, and bought by underage persons, we will mobilize communities to address underage drinking."

Our Values

ICRUD believes that all young people have the right to live and learn in environments that do not promote or facilitate underage drinking. We believe that youth and adults working together for policy change are an integral part of the solution.
