About
The Coalition For A Drug-Free Hawaii
The
Coalition for a Drug-Free Hawaii provides innovative
programs and services that help keep Hawaii children
and families healthy, strong, and resilient against
drug and alcohol abuse. Formed in 1987 out of a spirit
of business and community concern, CDFH has become a
highly regarded leader in the substance abuse
prevention field in Hawaii.
Their
aim is for every child in the islands to have the
opportunity to grow up drug-free. To accomplish this,
they conduct family strengthening services, best
practice program for youth, capacity building with
communities, training and technical assistance, and
public awareness campaigns. Our Prevention Resource
Center also serves as Hawaii's Regional Alcohol and
Drug Awareness Resource (RADAR) Center for alcohol,
tobacco, and other drug prevention educational
materials, resources, and programs.
The
Prevention Resource Center
Coalition for a Drug-Free Hawaii (CDFH) was designated
to become part of a revolutionary national program
known as the Regional Alcohol and Drug Awareness
Resource (R.A.D.A.R.) Network. The Prevention Resource
Center (PRC) was established to raise awareness,
connect people to resources, and motivate people to
take action to prevent drug abuse in Hawaii. The PRC
supports the implementation of effective family, youth
and community-oriented programs, as well as services
that foster resiliency, recovery, personal strength
and healthy lifestyle choices.
The PRC houses the state’s most comprehensive
collection of books, periodicals, brochures, fact
sheets, and videos on drug abuse, prevention, and
related issues. The PRC Lending Library is open to the
public for research or to borrow videos and books. The
PRC Clearinghouse disseminates free informational
materials, such as brochures, pamphlets, and statewide
directories:
Since
its beginning, Drug Free Hawaii has operated from the
notion that if they connect people and resources with
innovative ideas and strategies through awareness,
education, and action - they will find solutions. Be a
part of the solution.
