Welcome to Community Drug & Alchol Council, Inc. of Pensacola, FL. CDAC is the primary substance-abuse and violence-prevention community resource for Escambia and Santa Rosa counties.
CDAC offers programs, community support and collaboration to address drug and alcohol abuse, tobacco, mental health issues and violence both in the home and on our streets. CDAC holistically approaches these problems by engaging the entire community including schools, law enforcement, parents, counselors, students and case managers.
CDAC
CDAC is sponsored in part by the Florida Department of Children and Families and is a United Way Partner Agency. CDAC is the key resource for violence prevention, drug abuse prevention, and training for parents and teachers through our Savvy Series. That's why we partner with individuals and other organizations in the schools and in the community, because eradicating drug abuse and violence requires total community participation.
CDAC goes beyond the surface, addressing emotional and social skills in children; providing outreach aimed at high-crime and poverty-stricken areas; hosting community awareness events; offering parenting programs; and providing technical assistance to community groups like Project Graduation and Northwest Florida Prevention Coalitions. We are the source for speakers or fair displays for civic and volunteer agencies as well as church groups, providing drug abuse prevention, parenting skills and other related information.
