Substance Abuse Prevention Information
Alcohol and/or drug abuse causes a number of marked changes in behavior. Even small amounts can significantly impair judgment and coordination and interfere with a student's desire to do well.
At EITC, we encourage students to do their best but realize that some students will experience setbacks in their educational pursuits as a result of substance abuse. As a preventative measure, we offer on-campus: written information, weekly on-campus group meetings, community referrals and crisis intervention. Student Services is here to provide support to any student in need. The Center for New Directions can also assist in individual needs.
Additionally, the Idaho Falls area provides a variety of alcohol/drug intervention resources. Some local number listings are: AA Hotline: 524-7729; and Al-Anon: 522-4947.
*Eastern Idaho Technical College admits students regardless of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or any other classification protected by federal or state law or local ordinance.
