Who is CADCA?
CADCA is a non-profit organization representing adult and youth coalition leaders throughout the United States and internationally—all working to make their communities safe, healthy and drug- free. CADCA has built a network of more than 5,000 community anti-drug coalitions and brings together sectors of the community to solve their local substance abuse problems—schools, businesses, parents and youth, law enforcement, healthcare providers, faith-based organizations, and many more. Our model for community change represents a comprehensive, evidenced-based multi-sector approach to reduce underage and binge drinking, tobacco, illicit drugs and the abuse of medicines.The Mid-Year Training Institute
