April is Alcohol Awareness Month

     Last fall the Jones County Safe and Healthy Youth Coalition hosted a workshop with Dr. David Jernigan, director of the Center on Alcohol Marketing & Youth and professor at the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health. During that training, attendees learned that in America, 15 percent of breast cancer is related to alcohol use. Although it is extremely important to find cures for cancers, in the prevention world, it is hard to ignore and not focus on what can be causing different medical conditions.
