If you have ever secretly wondered if you have a problem with alcohol or drugs, or if someone you know has suggested that they believe you have a problem, this information will be useful to you. If you know for a fact that you have a problem with alcohol or drugs and are considering doing something about it, this is a good place to start. Take an assessment to get feedback on how you are doing or jump into the workshops to learn how alcohol and drugs affect your life and how to manage them. Check out the videos of others who are dealing with alcohol and drug related problems, and explore the e-library for in-depth information.

It's common for service members to use alcohol. However, excessive drinking can cause problems in relationships, trouble fulfilling duties because of intoxication, and financial and legal difficulties. In a survey conducted between 2004 and 2006, twenty-one percent of service members admitted to drinking heavily, and another seven percent of veterans reported a substance abuse problem in the year prior to the survey.

The Alcohol and Drugs Assessment, and each of the related assessments below, takes about five minutes to complete; recommendations follow based on your results.
