What is FNL??
FNL is a youth-adult partnership that supports a lifestyle free of alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs. It can be a chapter on your school campus, or in community based organizations and extends into a county youth council.
It was developed in 1984 by the State Office of Traffic Safety and the Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs and piloted in Sacramento, Contra Costa, and Riverside Counties.
It was created to address alcohol related crashes among youth and has evolved to include many more issues
