No Free Ride if You Provide
Underage Drinking. Adult Consequences.
No Free Ride if You Provide is an education and awareness campaign. The campaign materials are intended to compliment a community's increased enforcement efforts and ongoing policy initiatives to address youth access to alcohol.
Under Nebraska law, adults who host an underage drinking party, or provide or sell alcohol to a minor, can be held civilly liable if the intoxicated minor injures or kills someone. That's right. You could lose your shirt, your house, your business. There really is no free ride if you provide.
In addition, you can spend up to a year in jail, receive a $1000 fine or both if you provide alcohol to a minor. Recent jail sentences ranged from two months to a year in jail.
