January 17: Dry January

–submitted by Jessika Kasten

Maureen Busalacchi, Director of the Wisconsin Alcohol Policy Project, spoke to the group about the strong alcohol culture in our state and the ways that we can support calming that relationship to bring it more in line with the rest of the United States. Limiting our alcohol intake has many personal health benefits including weight loss, improved sleep, lower blood pressure, skin clarity – and more. We have the opportunity to change the culture by being more thoughtful and intentional about the role alcohol plays in our lives, events and communities as well as within our public health policy.
