Would be interesting to look at these data and carve out categories. I wonder how many deaths were related to alcohol alone, without any other substance.

The Allegany County Association of Student Councils worked hard to create a really nice underage drinking prevention campaign. A billboard was created, along with radio ads, a snap chat filter, and geofencing digital advertising. Great job Student Council leaders on reaching out to your fellow peers!!!

Hi Lynn! Is there a way to see this by county? It would be interesting to see what the cases are like across the state vs. the state as a whole.
