New Hampshire has some of the nation's most stringent laws aimed at fighting underage drinking. At the height of prom and graduation season, state officials have stepped up their efforts to educate the public about the consequences of breaking those laws. It's part of a strategy to reduce alcohol use by teenagers that also includes devoting federal funds to increased enforcement over the next several months.
