The workshop will review grant program applications and discuss reentry programs in general. The application deadline is June 25, 2001. The Drug-Free Communities Support Program supports coalitions of youth, parents, media, law enforcement, school officials, religious organizations and other community representatives. The program helps the coalitions prevent and reduce young people's illegal use of drugs, alcohol and tobacco and encourage citizen participation. Fiscal Year 2001 will mark the fourth year of funding under this program, which currently supports more than 300 coalitions in urban, rural, suburban and tribal communities.
Current grantees are eligible to receive continuation funding.
