CDSA programs created and implemented support initiatives for parents, including distribution of information on how to talk to their students about alcohol and other drugs. In partnership with MIT Medical and the Dean for Student Life, the CDSA programs office has worked to coordinate and implement the BASICS program (Brief Alcohol Screening and Intervention for College Students) for the second year at MIT.
