Applicant Workshops for Drug Free Communities Grants

Three workshops for groups interesting in applying for the next round of Drug Free Communities (DFC) Grants have been scheduled to take place within the next month, according to the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP).

The free workshops will be held on Jan. 26 in Fort Worth, Texas; Jan. 28 in Salt Lake City, Utah; and Feb. 12 in National Harbor, Md. The latter workshop will be held in conjunction with the Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America National Leadership Forum at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center.

Attendance is optional, and attendees must pay for their own travel-related expenses. To register, visit https://www.cmpinc.net/dfc/registration.html.

For those who cannot make it to the workshops, the proceedings will be recorded and posted to the DFC website by the end of January.

The 2010 DFC Request for Applications will be released in a few weeks, ONDCP officials said.
