Alcohol e-Checkup to Go (e-CHUG)
A 20-minute online alcohol educational assessment that raises your awareness about alcohol related behaviours.
The goal of e-CHUG is to promote the responsible decision making and safe use of alcohol amongst York University students. Through a series of questions, you will be given customized feedback that will help you gain insight into your relationship with alcohol. It helps students who choose to drink make more informed decisions about their drinking and minimize the potential harms that could result. The program also aims to provide support for students who choose not to drink and link students who would like additional support with on and off campus resources.
Head to the e-CHUG website to get started!
Notes:
- Once you have completed the e-CHUG assessment and have reviewed your personal feedback, you will be prompted to enter your name and email and fill out an Electronic Verification of Completion form.
- You will be asked to also identify a verification group that has mandated you to complete e-CHUG (e.g. residence life, athletics, orientation, etc.). Please make sure that you choose the proper verification group as it is the only way we can confirm that you have successfully completed e-CHUG. The verification information you submit is separated from your assessment responses and profile so that ONLY YOU can see your responses. York University staff will only receive confirmation that you completed e-CHUG.
