Fairfield Corps
Fairfield Corps is a group of paid Fairfield University student interns working to curb underage drinking. Using a peer-to-peer strategy, student interns educate fellow college students on the effects of alcohol use while helping students learn how to make healthier choices by enhancing decision-making skills. The Fairfield Corps initiative is funded by a grant from the Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services.
