Summary The Regional Council on Alcoholism has a role to play in educating the general public about alcoholism. Evening classes on alcoholism provide a means of reaching both the general public and the person involved professionally with problems of alcoholism. Appropriate involvement of newspapers and television can increase the impact of such classes. There is a need to obtain objective measurement of the success of such a venture.
