Alcohol and Drug Education
Resources for Parents

There are a variety of resources available regarding alcohol and other drug information and support.  The Alcohol & Drug Education Center (ADE) strives to be an accessible resource for the TCU Community.

Parent and family concern about a student’s choices regarding alcohol and other substance during college is natural.  The good news is that what parents (and other family members) say has a substantial effect on the choices students make about the use and non-use of alcohol.   For some discussion tips and topics take a look at the College Fact Sheet for Parents.
