Drug-Free Communities Support Program

The Drug-Free Communities Support Program is a federal initiative in the United States aimed at reducing youth substance abuse. It provides funding and support to community coalitions made up of local organizations, businesses, families, and youth. These coalitions work together to identify local drug problems, develop strategies, and implement prevention programs tailored to their specific needs. By fostering collaboration and encouraging community involvement, the program seeks to create safer environments for young people and ultimately lower rates of drug use among adolescents.
