The Monroe County Coalition is a group of community members and leaders in the Florida Keys who work together to prevent and reduce substance use, especially among youth. Our objectives include reducing early initiation of alcohol and other drug use; decreasing rates of binge drinking, reducing access to alcohol and other drugs; and decreasing the consequences of alcohol and other drug use. We work to increase quality prevention initiatives aimed at middle school, high school, and college students here in Monroe County to create a safer and drug-free community for all. To learn more about what we are currently working on, check out our current initiatives or join us at upcoming meeting or event!
