Council For Drug Free Youth

Mission: To inspire, educate, and empower youth for substance-free minds and thriving mental health.

The Council for Drug-Free Youth (CDFY) is a nonprofit organization committed to fostering a healthier, safer, and drug-free community for Jefferson City’s youth. By engaging parents, educators, and community leaders, CDFY works to prevent substance abuse through education, awareness, and empowering young people to make positive choices. Our mission is to inspire and support a culture of health and responsibility among youth and families.

CDFY provides education, prevention programs, and community initiatives to reduce substance use and improve mental health among young people. We collaborate with schools, parents, and local organizations to deliver evidence-based strategies that build resilience and promote healthy behaviors. From workshops and campaigns to peer-led initiatives, our work creates opportunities for youth to thrive in a supportive and drug-free environment.
