The BACCHUS Network™

Peer Educator. Teacher. Leader. Role Model. Activist. Friend. Our involvement as a student leader or advisor as part of our network is often a very personal and passionate story. For some, that involvement means continuing to live out convictions that are deeply rooted in the core of who we are. For others, our peer education experiences gave us the confidence to believe in ourselves as we continue to teach and support others. And for some, peer education became a life-changing moment for us or for someone we helped along the way – and the difference made was so significant that words become useless in attempting to describe the experience.

When it comes to the experiences that we have gained from our dedication to promoting health and safety issues, the word priceless comes to mind. Numerous hours were spent in training, programming, making flyers, attending conferences and recruiting students, all in an effort to make a positive change in our campus community. As many peer educators graduate and advisors move on to other career opportunities, we take with us the pearls of our involvement – compassion, wisdom, sense of service, sense of self, organization, leadership to use in our next professional, civic or academic role.

For many of us who have experienced the power of peer education, we look to continue the connection. You can find that connection in The BACCHUS Network™ Alumni and Friends Program.

Since 1975 The BACCHUS Network™ have been making a difference in the lives of college students. Our peer educators and advisors are committed to promoting positive lifestyles and ending negative consequences that result from alcohol abuse and other high risk behaviors.

Our students are dedicated to providing education and programs that speak to college students about high risk drinking and impaired driving prevention, tobacco cessation, sexual responsibility, and other drug use prevention. Perhaps you are a parent, an advisor, a former peer educator, or an organization looking to support a worthwhile cause. We need your help in making our campuses safe and healthy places to learn. Please consider making a charitable contribution to support The BACCHUS Network™'s leadership in promoting healthy behaviors.
