Harm Reduction Approach  100% policy compliance is ideal but not always realistic  100% non-compliance is not acceptable nor safe for members and guests  Harm reduction is moving toward compliance  Risk Management Education is based on policy  NOTE: While harm reduction is the educational approach judicially, organizations are still held accountable to policy

What constitutes a chapter social function?  Is event listed/advertised on chapter website or social media?  Is the event listed on chapter calendar (on/off line)?  Will event be announced at a chapter meeting?  Will any chapter officers be present?  Do online invitations/guest lists refer to your chapter?  Would a reasonable observer say it was your event?

  15. Why do we have Sober Monitors?

  16. Guidelines for Sober Monitors 1. Should not have consumed alcohol for a reasonable amount of time prior to and during the social event. 2. One monitor per every 15 people on the guest list 3. One sober executive board member is REQUIRED 4. If co-sponsored between organizations of opposite gender, both men and women monitors should be used to ensure safety of all guests a. Rules apply equally to men and women

  17. Guidelines for Sober Monitors Monitors should be initiated members of all sponsoring 5. organizations. a. New Members should not be serving in these roles 6. The President, Risk Management Chair, and Social Chair should limit their use of alcohol during social events so they can ensure that a safe social environment is maintained. 7. Ideally, specialty clothing should be worn by the monitors and sober officer to set them apart from the rest of the attendees (ex highly visible t-shirts or jackets).
