Once directly affected by the campus alcohol related tragedy, friends and families often become active in spreading awareness about the problems. While these efforts are meaningful, change can become more wide spread and long-lived if we operated in coordination.
Those who believe change is necessary should consider combining efforts, even in an informal way primarily exchanging ideas and successes. We all have a distinct primary focus, which combined can make a real difference.
As evident in CompelledToAct.com, my goal is to raise general awareness, most specifically with regards to the unenforced federal law.
If my referral is the only one that Washington receives, then the US Department of Education will soon forget about their statutory responsibility as they had for the past seventeen years.
While I firmly believe that the above effort can have a positive effect, I also realize that many other efforts are valuable and necessary.
If you have a desire to share experiences and gradually combine efforts leading towards a common goal, please respond to this blog or confidentially to
