Welcome
The Gordie Center for Substance Abuse Prevention at the University of Virginia creates and disseminates evidence-based educational programs and materials to decrease the negative consequences associated with hazardous drinking and illegal drug use among college students. The Gordie Center works with students to promote peer intervention and challenge attitudes that accept hazardous drinking and hazing behaviors in order to promote healthy campus environments in which hazing and alcohol poisoning do not occur.
