About Us

Drug & Alcohol Peer Advisors (DAPAs) are a select group of student-leaders who have been trained to educate their peers on alcohol and other drug issues at Harvard University. DAPAs are role models, educators, resources to their peers, and ambassadors for the Office of Alcohol & Other Drug Services (AODS). DAPAs accomplish this mission through educational and social events, promotional products and messaging, party grants, and community partnerships.

While we come from a variety of backgrounds and perspectives, we are united in our goal to make Harvard as fun and safe of a campus as possible.  Check out the pages below to find out more about DAPA.
