The Coalition for Prevention and Awareness in LA Metro (CoPALM) and KYCC’s Table Top Campaign collaborated with 14 restaurants and bars to launch the Table Top Campaign for the 2021 Halloween holiday. Table Top Campaign disseminated approximately 900 coasters with anti-drunk driving messaging in English and Spanish. The materials are intended to remind customers to drink responsibly and practice safe driving habits during a major drinking holiday.

The Table Top Campaign (TTC) is a project of KYCC’s Prevention Education Unit. It was first launched in Spring 2019 within the The Coalition for Prevention and Awareness in LA Metro (CoPALM) coalition. CoPALM aims to educate the community about the consequences of drunk driving and focuses its efforts in the city of Los Angeles. Since 2019, CoPALM has partnered with 56 businesses throughout SPA-4 and disseminated approximately 5,500 prevention materials. The coalition has been working hard to launch more campaigns, targeting holidays where the majority of the public tend to drink. 

Even small amounts of alcohol consumption negatively affects our ability to drive and puts potential danger to passengers, motorists, pedestrians, and ourselves. Safe driving requires the ability to concentrate, make sound decisions, and react quickly. With the Table Top Campaign (TTC), CoPALM aims to prevent drunk driving and impaired decision-making due to alcohol use.
