Brown County Parental Attitudes Survey NOW AVAILABLE!
If you are a parent of a child ages 5-21 who lives in Brown county, please take the survey linked below.
This survey allows USAC to evaluate our programming that we have offered over the past 3 years and also lets us know what parents think about substance abuse and use.
Even if you have younger children, please consider participating, it's never too early to start prevention education.
Thank you in advance for participating. The results will be available later this spring.

USAC COLLABORATING WITH THE NEW ULM PUBLIC HIGH SCHOOL AND THE CHARACTER COUNTS PROGRAM
USAC has begun working with the students at NUHS Character Counts program to get a drug-free message to students. The message the students chose is
"Stand Up! Shout Out! Be Proud! - Be part of the majority!
NU Eagles don't drink or use drugs".
Through this program coaches and advisers chose several students from each of the winter activities who were role models in the school and didn't drink or do drugs. After an interview process and photo shoot the results are shown below. When you visit the HS for a game be sure to check out all the large posters.
