Consensus Building
NPAMC seeks to identify areas of agreement among the majority of stakeholders and build consensus to foster real change. By focusing on areas of consensus, we can implement real solutions in a timely and effective manner. NPAMC will build consensus by hosting refular meetings and developing statements reflecting the sense of the group.
Consensus Statements
As with the first meeting, NPAMC will identify areas of agreement and consensus on critical topics relating to alcohol misuse and crime. NPAMC will publish statements reflecting the “sense of the group” designed to focus attention and efforts on recognized best practices. While the statements cannot be attributed to any particular participants or their associations, organizations, agencies or companies, they allow us a unique opportunity to identify generally accepted concerns and solutions.
