Project Extra Mile is a statewide network of community coalitions in Nebraska working to prevent underage drinking.
Community organizing is the foundation to our efforts in preventing underage drinking. We focus our work on policy initiatives, enforcement collaborations, media advocacy, education and awareness and youth involvement. This comprehensive approach is often referred to as environmental prevention.
Project Extra Mile has been recognized through awards from the National Commission Against Drunk Driving, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, the Public Health Association of Nebraska, Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America and The National Safety Council, Greater Omaha Chapter.
