A Message from your NASA MAF Employee Assistance Program Office and EAP Coordinator Porter Pryor:
April is National Alcohol Awareness Month
April 2023
Dr. George F. Koob, Ph.D., Director of the NIAAA (National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism) wants readers to learn about Alcohol Use Disorder and ways to get help. While he acknowledges that most US adults who drink Alcohol do so moderately and without complications, Alcohol Use disorder (AUD) affects about 15 million adults in the US and an estimated 88 million people die of alcohol related deaths annually, making alcohol the third leading cause of death in the nation. In his article link https://www.niaaa.nih.gov/about-niaaa/directors-page/niaaa-directors-blog/alcohol-awareness-month-learn-about-alcohol-use-disorder-and-ways-get-help Dr. Koob helps folks consider if alcohol use disorder may be affecting their own lives or a family member’s and how to locate available resources for help. This includes an additional link to the NIH publication “Rethinking Drinking: Alcohol and Your Health” which can be downloaded and shared with friends, family and colleagues https://www.rethinkingdrinking.niaaa.nih.gov/
Please remember that individual help is available through NASA’s on-site EAP, MAF Employee Assistance Program Office, as well as additional resource at the Agency Occupational Health Program Health 4 Life - Home (sharepoint.com).
