Dry January offers help for New Year’s alcohol changes

The Alliance for Substance Abuse Progress in Bartholomew County is hoping to help residents make healthy choices when it comes to alcohol in the new year.

The agency is promoting a community-wide “Dry January” challenge. Organizers say the goal is to enhance community wellness by helping participants explore how shifting their relationship with alcohol can positively impact overall mental and physical wellbeing.

ASAP is partnering with empowerment coach Skye Nicholson to offer free coaching to participants during the challenge. The coaching will be based on the book “The Alcohol Experiment” by Annie Grace. If you sign up you will receive emails, videos, social media posts and links to Facebook live events from Nicholson corresponding to themes in the book.

Viewpoint Books will be offering discounted copies of the book.

The challenge is being offered under ASAP’s Rethinking Wellness initiative which aims to prevent substance misuse in Bartholomew County
