April 15, 2024, Press Release from the Ohio Department of Commerce Division of Liquor Control: COLUMBUS, Ohio — As we approach the prom and graduation season, the Ohio Investigative Unit (OIU) and the Ohio Department of Commerce Division of Liquor Control (DOLC) remind high school students and their parents to make safe, responsible and legal choices as they plan celebrations. First and foremost, it’s important that parents and teens both understand Ohio’s underage drinking laws. Parents should not host or provide their house or elsewhere a “safe environment” for their child’s friends to drink. This prohibition applies even if the other parents provide permission. If convicted of selling or providing alcohol to an underage person, the seller can face a maximum sentence of six months in jail and/or a $1,000 fine for each offense.
