Drug Free Coalition looking for members

South Tahoe Drug Free Coalition is looking for people who are concerned about the area’s party and drug culture and want to help decide how a grant can be used to create lasting change.

In September, Tahoe Youth & Family Services was awarded a Federal Drug Free Communities grant on behalf of the South Tahoe Drug Free Coalition. The coalition was awarded $125,000 per year for the next five years to prevent and reduce youth substance use and change the culture in South Lake Tahoe to reduce adult use as well.

The Coalition meets monthly at the Al Tahoe/Boys and Girls Club, 1100 Lyons Ave., South Lake Tahoe on the second Monday of the month at 3:30pm. The next meeting will be Feb. 10th.
