Project Alliance – Collaboration and Action to Reduce Substance Use and Misuse

CHCC’s Project Alliance coalition aims to increase collaboration and take action to reduce the risks related to alcohol, marijuana, and other drugs for youth and 社区成员 in northern York County.

The Project Alliance board includes representatives from diverse sectors including schools, parents, 执法, youth, clergy, and more. 与社区伙伴合作, Project Alliance leads substance misuse prevention efforts to reduce retail and social access to alcohol, 提高对大麻使用风险的认识, 促进处方药的安全处置. Project Alliance board members have been leaders in establishing the Northern York County Prescription Drug Coalition, chairing the Maine Opiate Collaborative’s Prevention/Harm Reduction Task Force, and serving as the prevention partner for the newly-formed Saco Biddeford Opioid Outreach Initiative.

CHCC’s substance abuse prevention work is supported by funding from the Maine Substance Use Prevention Services grant and the Office of National Drug Control Policy.
