Alcohol possibly the most significant public health challenges we face in our country today. Or so that's what Antonia C. Novello believed was true. Antonia is a former general surgeon and now speaks out about the problem we have with underage drinking. She has been trying to convince teens of the risks alcohol has when starting to young. Although she hasn't always been successful with her tries she has still impacted others by her own life changing stories. The key to changing the role of the community and helping us solve illegal drinking is to prevent it before it happens.
