Have you or someone you love been impacted by drug and alcohol addiction? We invite you to participate in this community discussion.
Please join us at the 'Fairfax Prevention Coalition Community Focus Group-Providence District'


The Goals of the Coalition are to:

• Decrease the number of those who are using alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs
• Increase perception of personal harms caused by alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs,
• Collaborate with community partners to address underage drinking and substance misuse, and
• Conduct assessments to examine substance abuse issues present in our community.

Topics to think about prior to the focus group are:

• As a community, what is needed to address drug use/misuse among the youth, young adults, adults and older adults in the community?
• Where are the increases and decreases in use of alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs?
• How is the community getting prevention education information?
• Are there areas that should have increased prevention services?
• How prevalent are problems with impaired driving in the community?
We look forward to hearing your thoughts and feedback around substance misuse in our community.
