Coalition details parent-letter campaign and spring compliance checks for underage alcohol
Summary
Loveland explained a hand-delivered and mailed letter campaign to parents of graduating seniors across 12 schools, coordinated with law enforcement, and reported five spring alcohol compliance checks—all of which passed.
Loveland told the board the coalition organizes an annual letter campaign aimed at parents of graduating seniors; she said 12 schools participate and letters are signed by local criminal-justice partners and include a non-emergency reporting number for suspected underage parties. "We actually hand deliver the letters," she said, describing coordination with Monroe Post envelopes provided by Michigan State Police.
She also summarized compliance checks done during spring break: five alcohol checks used school-resource officers and youth decoys and "all five of them passed," she said. The coalition reimbursed youth decoy stipends and continues to provide vendor-education packets to retail establishments.
