Hannah's effort can be classified as universal prevention. This type of prevention aims to educate and raise awareness among the general population (in this case, all college students), regardless of their individual risk levels. By setting up her stand and providing information about the dangers of binge drinking and resources available for all students, she is working to prevent potential issues related to alcohol use within the broader student community.
Hannah sets up a stand during the first two weeks of every semester at the local university. Her stand discusses the dangers of binge drinking. On the table, she has several photos with statistics showing how many college students are injured or suffer trauma because of binge drinking. She has pamphlets that list resources for students with alcohol issues. Her stand offers a free peer assistance number for those who find themselves in need of a ride home if they want to leave a party. What type of prevention would you say that Hannah's effort is involved in?
