Helping
children and families
fight illegal substance
abuse
The
mission of the Union
County Anti-Drug Coalition
is to support an overall
safe community by
providing information,
education and support
services to children,
families and community
towards prevention
of illegal substance
abuse. It was initiated
by the Union County
Rotary Club in 2006
and is a nonprofit
public charity. It
is funded by community
support, both business
and private, by fund
raisers and by occasional
grants. The Union
County Anti-Drug Coalition
also seeks support
through the volunteer
efforts of its community
members.
