The mission of the Pittsfield Drug and Alcohol Coalition (PDAC) is to support youth and the community to reduce substance abuse through collaborative community involvement.

These initiatives are sustained by providing prevention information, intervention solutions and treatment efforts that will promote positive behaviors which will measurably improve the health and well being of our youth, families and citizens.

Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America (CADCA)

A coalition is a formal agreement and collaboration between groups or sectors of a community in which each group retains its identity but will agree to work together toward a common goal of building a safe, healthy and drug-free community.

The Pittsfield Drug and Alcohol Coalition continues to work collaboratively with the Pittsfield Community Coalition, the Pittsfield Youth Workshop, the Pittsfield School District and the Pittsfield Police Department by co sponsoring Community Forums called What are our kids telling us? The forums will be highlighting information recently released from the Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) that was conducted in 2009 and given to 161 students.
