Commentary:
The Health & Community Services Department currently has a $1,073,976 contract with the Maine
Department of Health & Human Services to implement a public health initiative in Bangor and eleven
surrounding communities. Substance abuse prevention is included in this public health effort, and these OSA
funds will be used to target underage drinking. Specifically, we will be providing the seven law enforcement
organizations in our service area with funding to conduct underage drinking patrols. We will also conduct a
media campaign aimed at parents during the Maine Principal's Association Basketball, Cheerleading, and
Wrestling Tournaments at the Bangor Auditorium in 2009 and 2010.
