Brevard Prevention Coalition, Inc., previously Brevard Youth Substance Abuse Prevention Coalition, operated as an informal coalition of agencies and community members since 2007 in Brevard County, FL. Recently, the organization has formalized, reorganized, and intensified its efforts, becoming a corporation and 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization in 2018. Our goal is to improve the quality of li
fe in Brevard County by reducing risk factors that lead to substance misuse and promoting factors that protect our community. We do this through local outreach, school-based activities, social marketing initiatives, campaigns, and engaging events that provide a unique and appealing platform. We work with community leaders, influencers, athletes, artists, businesses, and others to implement strategies that effect positive change. We challenge stigmas surrounding substance misuse as well as mental health and strive to disrupt the cycle of addiction and overdoses plaguing our Space Coast.
