The Alcohol, Tobacco and Violence Prevention (ATVP) Curriculum Infusion Project was established at Illinois State University in 1994 through a federal grant in response to growing concern over student alcohol and drug abuse.
Curriculum infusion project participants are faculty who voluntarily integrate substance abuse prevention content, where there is a natural fit, into regularly offered classes. Today, the project purpose has been expanded to include campus violence, especially sexual assault.
The Core Drug and Alcohol Survey, a nationwide survey, was developed to measure alcohol and other drug usage, attitudes and perceptions among college students at two and four-year institutions. Development of the survey was funded by the U.S. Department of Education. Results posted here are from surveys conducted at Illinois State University.
Faculty and staff who would like to become a part of the Curriculum Infusion Project and receive updates via an electronic newsletter should contact the Health Promotion Office at 438-5948.
