    ABOUT METRO DRUG COALITION

    Meeting the Needs of our Community

    Primary
    Prevention

    Primary Prevention

    Primary prevention aims to delay the early introduction of any substance among youth, while preventing misuse and addiction in adults.

    Harm
    Reduction

    Harm Reduction

    Harm Reduction prevents early death, promotes health and prevents the spread of infectious diseases by meeting people in active addiction where they are rather than making judgements about where they should be.

    Recovery
    Support

    Recovery Support

    Recovery support helps individuals stay connected to a process to manage their sobriety and gather the tools to live a full and satisfying life.
