Our Mission
Partners in Prevention
History
Our Mission

As community partners, we plan, support and coordinate efforts to reduce and prevent substance abuse among youth and adults in Delaware County, Indiana.

The Delaware County Prevention Council (DCPC) is part of the statewide network of the Governor’s Commission for a Drug-Free Indiana and the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute (ICJI) as the designated Local Coordinating Council (LCC) for our county.

Partners in Prevention

The Delaware County Prevention Council is comprised of concerned citizens who partner against substance abuse.  Our partners represent the following sectors:  youth(ages 18 or younger); parents; business; media; school; youth serving organizations; law enforcement;  religious/fraternal organizations; civic/volunteer groups; healthcare professionals; state, local or tribal governmental agencies; and other organizations involved in reducing substance abuse.

History

What began as an effort by concerned parents in 1986 has evolved into one of the largest local coordinating councils in the State of Indiana.

Each year the Delaware County Prevention Council (DCPC) awards grants, in the areas of prevention/education, intervention/ treatment, and justice/law enforcement to local agencies that submit applications for projects that adhere to the problem statements listed in our annual Comprehensive Community Plan on substance abuse.

The coalition has a 40-member board of directors, with a president vice-president, treasurer and secretary, along with a full time executive director.

The DCPC has three standing task forces, prevention, treatment, and law enforcement. There are also several other committees including a grant review committee, Red Ribbon Committee and ad hoc committees as needed.

The DCPC is designated as a 501 c (3) not-for-profit agency with by-laws in place. We are provided with a community consultant by the Governor’s Commission for a Drug Free Indiana, who assist in our ongoing activities. As the designated local coordinating council for Delaware County, we are part of the statewide network of the Governors Commission for a Drug Free Indiana and the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute.
