New study: Brown County has a drinking problem

A new study by the Bay Area Community Council found a “widespread culture of alcohol abuse” in Brown County. UW-Green Bay Prof. Regan Gurung, president of the Council, says it will take a community approach to solve the problem “because of the magnitude of this issue.” The Council released the study at a news conference on Wednesday. UW-Green Bay Prof. Emeritus David Littig was also at the event and helped work on the study.
