LCF Community Prevention Council

Important Links

As you’re aware, alcohol and substance abuse, addiction and recovery remains an important topic. According to the CDC, excessive alcohol use led to approximately 88,000 deaths and 2.5 million years of potential life lost (YPLL) *each year* in the United States from 2006 – 2010 [1].

Statistics like these make our job at The Community Prevention Council (CPC) that much more important. At CPC, our collective goal is to empower community members, parents, educators and teenagers with the facts on drug use and abuse. We are working to identify authoritative resources on every aspect of substance abuse, ranging from prevention to addiction treatment.
