We are excited to share our conversation with Rebecca Garza. Rebecca is a Health Promotion Strategist at the Oregon Health Authority. She supports strategic communications and mobilization initiatives and is the lead for the Rethink the Drink(RTD) brand. Rebecca earned a Master of Science in Medical Anthropology and Cross-Cultural Practice at Boston University School of Medicine.

Rebecca shared Oregon's innovative approach to addressing excessive alcohol use in Oregon. We enjoyed learning about the thinking, research, and approach behind RTD's mission to help communities across Oregon Rethink the Drink.

We dive into how RTD is helping CSPP raise awareness and create dialogue in the construction community. They have helped us craft a fun and informative approach to a serious and complicated issue.

Please check out their resources at https://www.rethinkthedrink.com, and you can find construction-specific Rethink the Drink materials here.

Rethink the Drink is creating a thoughtful and engaging dialogue around alcohol and building a new framework for thinking about alcohol.

We appreciate Rebecca taking the time to talk with us!
