Frontier Community Coalition

Frontier Community Coalition (FCC) is a non-profit organization based in Lovelock, Nevada, registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) since December 8, 2008. The organization primarily focuses on addressing social challenges in rural Nevada counties, specifically in Humboldt, Lander, Mineral, and Pershing counties, serving approximately 34,223 residents across a 24,946 square mile region. As a tax-exempt corporate entity, FCC specializes in providing community-based prevention, support, and intervention services, with a particular emphasis on addressing homelessness, substance misuse, mental health, and youth development.

The organization has received multiple federal grants from agencies such as the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control. These grants have supported comprehensive initiatives including the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program to combat homelessness, the Drug Free Communities Support Program to reduce substance misuse among youth ages 12-18, and various substance use prevention and mental health awareness projects. Through sub-grants from the Nevada Department of Health and Human Services, FCC has implemented programs focusing on peer recovery support for opioid prevention, harm reduction services, youth resilience, family planning, emergency response skills, and strategic prevention framework efforts targeting alcohol, marijuana, and methamphetamine use. The organization's work involves distributing naloxone kits, conducting peer-led recovery meetings, facilitating harm reduction workshops, and connecting individuals to critical services like housing, mental health treatment, and substance use recovery resources.
