BASICS
BASICS (Brief Alcohol Screening and Intervention for College Students) Program. This program is available to all UH students who may want to explore their own alcohol and/or drug use. The goal of the program is to reduce risky behaviors and harmful consequences of alcohol/drug abuse. Some students attend BASICS to fulfill a campus sanction, while others come because they have concerns about their alcohol and/or drug use. It is designed to assist students in examining their own behavior in a judgement-free environment. The BASICS sessions are entirely confidential, and we will not disclose any information from the sessions to anyone, including a student’s parents, without the student’s permission. To schedule an appointment, visit the ADEP link at our Health Promotion website or call 956-3453.
Manoa Alcohol Project
Manoa Alcohol Project (MAP) – An education and prevention program designed to address underage and high-risk drinking among freshmen students. Call 956-5158 for more information or visit our website.
Tobacco Prevention and Education
The Health Promotion Section of University Health Services Manoa provides tobacco education/prevention programs on campus. We not only are educating tobacco users about health consequences, but also are working as advocates to promote campus policies and practices that discourage tobacco use and reduce the dangers of secondhand smoke.
