Our Start:
The Drug Coalition was founded in 2007 by concerned community members from a variety of backgrounds and perspectives. These committed citizens began to meet regularly, convening an informal coalition. Research was done on how to develop a best practices coalition and that implementation and evolution continues. The informal coalition became a 501 c 3 organization in 2009, secured a Federal Drug Free Communities (DFC) Grant in 2010, and membership has grown to over 50 active coalition members, representing all sectors of our community.
