Northeast Valley Coalition Against Methamphetamine
Please note that grant funding for the Northeast Valley Coalition Against Methamphetamine ended September 30, 2009. As a result, the steering committee decided to suspend coalition activities, and encourage members of the public to get involved with other coalitions in the area and with local service providers, including the Scottsdale Prevention Institute
and Community Bridges
, key partners in the Coalition's success.
