"I need you to say NO" is the message from five young people sharing a simple but potent message to parents about underage drinking. At Meli, we see the impact of alcohol on young people and families every day. Under-age drinking can lead to risky behaviour and injuries, mental ill-health and harmful alcohol use later in life. The “I need you to say no” campaign is a collaborative project between Meli, Communities That Care Ltd and Barwon Health urging parents and adults to 'say no' to providing alcohol to under 18s. Parents can play a big role in influencing young people’s attitudes to drinking as well as managing their access to alcohol.
