Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA CE21 210206CONT26

The Drug-Free Communities (DFC) Support Program – Competing Continuation (Year 6) provides funding to community-based coalitions that have completed their initial five-year DFC grant cycle or have experienced a lapse in funding. The program, administered by the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) and the CDC, aims to prevent and reduce youth substance use through strong local partnerships.

The two main goals of the program are: 1) Strengthen collaboration among community organizations, government entities, and non-profits to fight youth substance use. 2) Reduce substance use among youth and, over time, among adults by addressing risk factors and promoting protective factors in the community.

Eligibility is limited to U.S.-based or U.S. territory-based nonprofits and other select organizations (e.g., local governments, tribes, universities, faith-based groups) that previously received DFC funding. Applicants must operate as or on behalf of a formal community coalition—a collaborative group that represents various local sectors working together toward a drug-free community.

This grant opportunity supports the continuation of local drug prevention efforts while aligning with current federal policy priorities focused on public safety, merit-based opportunity, and protecting youth.
