Drug-Free Communities (DFC) Support Program

The Drug-Free Communities (DFC) Support Program is a federal initiative that provides funding and support to local coalition efforts aimed at reducing youth substance use. It encourages community-based partnerships among schools, local governments, health organizations, and residents to develop and implement prevention strategies. The goal is to create a united front that promotes healthy choices and decreases the availability and appeal of drugs and alcohol among young people, fostering safer, healthier communities through collaborative action and evidence-based programs.
