BIG Initiative – What is it?
The BIG
Initiative is a campaign that engages many of the leading EAP
vendors, businesses, EAP professionals, and benefits consultants who
are working together to advance the use of SBIRT across the EAP
industry. The intent is to make alcohol screening and brief
intervention a routine practice across the field by October 2011.

Dr.
Goperud and Dr. McPherson conduct research on the integration of
alcohol screening, brief intervention, referral to treatment, and
follow-up care in EAPs. For
