Assess Your Alcohol Consumption

AlcoholScreening.org is a free service of Join Together, a project of the The Partnership at Drugfree.org and Boston University School of Public Health.

AlcoholScreening.org helps individuals assess their own alcohol consumption patterns to determine if their drinking is likely to be harming their health or increasing their risk for future harm. Through education and referral, the site urges those whose drinking is harmful or hazardous to take positive action, and informs all adults who consume alcohol about guidelines and caveats for lower-risk drinking.

Answering the screening questions will take only a few minutes, and will give you personalized results based on your age, gender and drinking patterns. After completing the short questionnaire, you will be provided with a printable summary of your personalized feedback and, if applicable, a plan for change. Click here to find out if the way or amount you drink could be harming your health.
