 Drug Free Community Coalition - The St. Joseph Drug Free Community Coalition aims to promote youth development, reduce risk-taking behaviors, build assets and resilience, and prevent problem behaviors in youth.

- Increase citizen participation and greater collaboration among all sectors of the community;
- Enhance community efforts to promote and deliver effective substance abuse prevention strategies; and
- Assess the effectiveness of our substance abuse prevention initiatives.
