I am hoping that someone can provide me with information regarding a project we are working on at our health unit.

We are investigating possible intitatives such as media campiagns, and workplace porgrams that would focus on various alcohol-related issues such as impaired driving, low-risk drinking guidelines, and binge drinking. Our thought was that if we target women that their influence will in turn change attitudes and behaviours of their family/spouse.

Does anyone have information or suggestions to get information on the following?

Women's influence on family/spouse and community behaviour specifically with alcohol and drinking and driving issues or other health related behaviours.

Any evidence about effectiveness of reaching women regarding drinking and driving and their own behaviours.

Thank you in advance for any suggestions or information.
