Drug and Alcohol Abuse Education Programs

Emory University is committed to the health and well-being of its faculty, staff, and student body. Federal regulations, including the Drug Free Workplace Act of 1988 and the Drug Free Schools and Communities Act, mandate that Emory maintain an Alcohol and Other Drugs (AOD) Policy and distribute such policy to all students, faculty, and staff. Alcohol and drug misuse and abuse can be detrimental to one’s overall physical and emotional health, academic and/or professional performance, and can adversely impact family, friends and co-workers. Alcohol and other drug misuse on college campuses is a major public health concern. Emory University’s policy, along with resources, health risks of alcohol and drug abuse, and consequences of this abuse may be found at http://policies.emory.edu/8.8. Emory Healthcare’s policy may be found at Substance Use/Abuse Policy – Part 1 and Substance Use/Abuse Policy-Part II. All Emory University and Emory Healthcare faculty, staff and students are prohibited by the University from unlawfully using, possessing, manufacturing, dispensing, or distributing alcohol, controlled substances, or illegal drugs on University- owned property or at University-sponsored activities.

Emory University and Emory Healthcare expects all of its faculty, staff, and students to comply with any applicable federal, state, or local laws pertaining to the use, possession, manufacture, dispensation or distribution of alcohol, controlled substances, or illegal drugs.

Members of the campus community are responsible for being fully aware of applicable policy, as well as local, state, and federal laws regarding the use of alcohol and other drugs. Alcohol and drug misuse and abuse can be detrimental to one’s overall physical and emotional health, as well as academic and/or professional work performance.
