The Montana Department of Revenue’s Alcoholic Beverage Control Division (ABCD) is a member of the National Alcohol Beverage Control Association (NABCA) and has received an alcohol education grant from this organization.
NABCA’s mission is to support member jurisdictions in their efforts to protect public health and safety and ensure responsible and efficient systems for beverage alcohol distribution and sales.
ABCD will award five, one-time, $2,000 scholarships to Montana students who come up with designs for billboards dedicated to the question: What does “Alcohol Responsibility Matters” mean to you and your community?
Billboards in high-traffic areas across Montana will be used to promote the importance of responsible alcohol consumption. The billboards will have a consistent theme centered on Montana and the tagline “Alcohol Responsibility Matters” and the existing logo along with the student’s original design.
ABCD’s hope is to provide community-centered messages that remind individuals 21 and over of the importance of being responsible when consuming alcohol. This will support the overall theme of Alcohol Responsibility Matters for Alcohol Awareness Month in April.
