LCPSA Mission:
To provide a unified community effort for sharing resources, increasing awareness of substance abuse through education, building relationships, and advocating for people affected by substance abuse.
LCPSA History:
The Linn County Partnership on Substance Abuse (LCPSA) is a community coalition that was formed in response to the fact that substance abuse/use was consistently rated as one of the primary concerns of Linn County, Iowa residents when Community Needs Assessments were conducted.
In 2006, the LCPSA was awarded a Drug-Free Communities grant that provided so resources for the tools needed to serve as a catalyst for citizen participation in local drug prevention efforts.
We strive to always have diverse representation, including (but not limited to): youth, parents, civic organizations, youth-serving organizations, faith community, law enforcement, elected officials, business professionals, education, healthcare, media and substance-abuse experts.
Together, sharing ideas for a stronger community, we can reduce and prevent substance abuse among youth and overtime adults, by creating a community that values healthy youth development, community involvement and respect for all individuals regardless of their circumstance.
JOIN US to develop, implement and monitor strategies that will help to make Linn County become a safe, healthy and drug-free community that we can all be proud to call "home".
