Coalition Purpose
The purpose of the Community Partners Coalition is to reduce substance use/abuse among the youth of East Texas. Our
projects and events provide opportunities for the community to become involved. By developing relationships, partnerships
and collaborations, the coalition will become even stronger.
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide a coordinated approach to the prevention of substance use/abuse among youth. We strive to make
a difference by educating the public and expanding our reach.
Our History
Acting as the lead agency for the Community Partners Coalition, SCCADA, was awarded five years of funding from the Office
of National Drug Control Policy and the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention for the Drug Free Communities
Support Program. In 2006, SCCADA was awarded another five years of funding to continue the efforts of the coalition.
We have two basic goals: Reduce substance abuse among youth and strengthen the community through collaborations and partnerships.
