Support of initiatives designed to implement the national community anti-drug coalition institute

The Executive Office of the President Office of the National Drug Control Policy awarded a $2.5 million Project Grant to the Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America (CADCA) to support initiatives designed to implement the National Community Anti-Drug Coalition Institute from October 1, 2021 to September 30, 2022. The grant funding supports CADCA's work under the Drug-Free Communities (DFC) National Community Antidrug Coalition Institute program (CFDA #95.003) to provide training and technical assistance to community coalitions across the country, as directed in the authorizing legislation. Specifically, CADCA will deliver initiatives to train and develop the capacity of community coalitions in implementing comprehensive strategies to prevent and reduce substance use and abuse among youth. The grant enables CADCA to continue performing a key role under the DFC program to strengthen and expand the network of community anti-drug coalitions nationwide.
