Professional Development: Alcohol101+ and the Safe Bar Program
Alcohol101+ Program Description: Alcohol101+: Tom Grane, the Manager of Education Programs with Responsibility.org, will discuss Alcohol101+, a free, digital alcohol education course developed by Responsibility.org, and strategies for its inclusion in campus prevention efforts. Alcohol101+ addresses content such as standard drink size and BAC, risk-reduction tips, and alcohol’s impact on the body. The presentation will demonstrate aspects of the program and explore the course’s theoretical framework, development, and content.
Safe Bar Program:
The mission of Safe Bar is to work with local bars & restaurants in raising awareness about alcohol's role in sexual assault, engaging bar owners and staff in bystander intervention, and working together to do our part to prevent sexual violence across Tennessee. Jordan Owens and Jack Ohmes from the Sexual Assault Center of Middle TN will join us to discuss the Safe Bar Program as well as additional resources and trainings available to our campus communities from the Sexual Assault Center of Middle TN.
Jack Ohmes:
Jack Ohmes is the Statewide Training Specialist for Safe Bar and Safe Tracks at the Sexual Assault Center of Middle Tennessee, where he focuses on training the community to help foster safer spaces in Tennessee. Jack grew up in Saint Paul, MN, and attended Belmont University, where he graduated with a Bachelor of Business Administration. He minored in Social Justice and was originally brought to the Sexual Assault Center through his internship with Haley & Michaels and their involvement in the creation of “Safe Tracks”. Jack loves writing songs and hanging out with Scooby Doo & Johnny Cash, his pet guinea pig and cat.
