Douglas County Drug Prevention Coalition
Together for a Safer, Stronger Douglas County
The Douglas County Drug Prevention Coalition (DPC) is a community-driven group working to reduce substance abuse and support healthier lives across our county. What started as a small committee in 2011 has grown into a powerful collaboration of local leaders, organizations, and volunteers focused on education, awareness, and access to resources. We’re proud of our roots and excited about our future—bringing people together, securing vital funding, and launching prevention efforts that truly make a difference. Whether you’re a parent, teen, educator, or just someone who cares, there’s a place for you in this mission. Let’s build a stronger, safer Douglas County—together.
