SAVE THE DATE

The 2007 Responsible Retailing (RR) Forum's 5th national meeting has been scheduled for Tuesday – Wednesday, May 8 and 9, 2007 in Santa Fe, NM at the El Dorado Hotel and Spa.

Conference information and electronic registration will be available in early February. Please check back soon for more information.

The RR Forum has become a mechanism by which retailers of age-restricted products, and the agencies that enforce underage sales laws, can interact with academic researchers to investigate Best Practices for preventing underage sales. The RR Forum has also become the principal venue to examine responsible retailing practices and policies from the perspective of diverse stakeholders: public health and enforcement agencies; state attorneys general; health foundations; researchers; retailers and their associations; and producers and their associations/foundations.


Last Year’s RR Forum

The 4th RR Forum was held in Washington, D.C. on April 18-20, 2006 at the Marriott Metro Center. The meeting was attended by  individuals from 29 states representing retailers and their associations, producers and distributors, regulatory and enforcement agencies, state and federal public health and safety agencies, advocates, RR training organizations, and researchers. As in prior national meetings, the RR Forum examined issues of underage sales prevention at the level of (a) store and chain, (b) community, and (c) state RR policy.
