Community anti-drug coalitions

Community anti-drug coalitions are collaborative groups made up of local residents, organizations, and agencies working together to prevent and reduce substance abuse in their community. They typically focus on strategies like education, advocacy, and support for healthy choices. By engaging various stakeholders, including schools, law enforcement, and health services, these coalitions aim to create a supportive environment that discourages drug use and encourages wellness. They often address specific local needs and coordinate resources to implement effective prevention programs tailored to their community.
