Mission and programs · 2025

• To educate regulators, policy makers and the public about alcohol, its unique attributes, and the role of alcohol regulation. The Center strives to educate the public about the system that regulates the responsible manufacture, distribution, and sale of alcohol beverages to adults of legal drinking age. Projects include an annual law and policy conference which explores current alcohol laws and challenges and features a wide range of participants such as enforcement officials, legal scholars, and public health advocates as well as all segments and all tiers of the alcohol industry. During the year, the Center hosts alcohol regulation symposiums in the states to expand the educational outreach efforts.

  Expenses $440,657 · Revenue $81,551

• The Center conducts a national survey to learn about American adults' attitudes on alcohol regulation across the country and facilitates research reports focusing on the historical importance and the current enforcement of state alcohol regulations and federal alcohol laws. Each year, the Center sponsors a national essay contest to foster debate, analysis, and examination of state based alcohol regulation. The Center also continues to print copies of Toward Liquor Control, a book which offers historical perspective of today's regulatory structure of the American alcohol system.

As filed on the 2025 return.

Listed in Part VII

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

Schedule J

Part I's answers as filed. A line not listed was left unanswered; on lines 1a and 3 that means the box was not checked.
