The Monroe County Drug Free Communities is all about helping you create a community where all members, youth and adults, can live healthy lifestyles free of substance abuse. (Mission)
What is Monroe County Drug Free Communities?
It is a coalition of concerned community members who want to make a difference. We are concerned about the problems substance abuse is causing in our community.
Together we are working to decrease substance abuse in Monroe County through various activities, including: random student drug testing, local youth prevention councils, parent to parent groups, town hall meetings, community wide campaigns, environmental policy changes and broad-based community collaboration.
Key goals include having a lasting impact on Monroe Countians by reducing the use of tobacco, alcohol, and other drugs; enhancing protective factors in our community; and strengthening the Coalition’s capacity by adding to our membership.
“In every community there is work to be done. In every nation, there are wounds to heal. In every heart there is the power to do it.” -Marianne Williamson |
