The Jamestown Substance Abuse Prevention Task Force is a non-profit
state-funded
organization, dedicated to preventing the problem of substance abuse in our
community.
The Task Force represents a cross-section of the community volunteers
including parents,
teachers, youths, seniors, business, professionals, law enforcement, and
clergy. Funding
for the Task Force is provided by the Department of MHRH, as
mandated by
the 1987 Substance Abuse Prevention Act (i.e. The Bramley Bill).
The central mission of the Task Force is to support and initiate community
based
programs designed to discourage and prevent substance abuse in Jamestown.
In community partnership, the Task Force works cooperatively with community
organizations including the PTO, the Jamestown Philomenian Library, Jamestown
Elementary Schools, the Jamestown Police Department, and the town government.
The Jamestown Substance Abuse Prevention Task Force welcomes suggestions,
inquiries, and participation by any concerned resident of Jamestown.
Individuals or groups interested in starting a new program, or continuing an
existing one
that promotes the health and vitality of our community, are encouraged to
