The Merrillville Drug Free Community (DFC) Project is in its 2nd year of the 5 year grant we received from the Office of National Drug Control Policy. We have had many accomplishments over the past two years, including but not limited to, successful media campaigns, youth-focused events, Town Hall Meetings, increased coalition capacity and staff and member training. During this past year, the Merrillville DFC project graduated from the CADCAâs National Coalition Institute, a three week intensive workshop focused on completing 5 deliverables for our coalition.
