About Town Hall Meetings

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) is inviting communities to hold Town Hall Meetings as a grassroots effort to reduce the negative impact of underage drinking on the health and safety of their members. SAMHSA sponsors national Town Hall Meetings every 2 years. In 2010, more than 2,000 events were held across the country.
