Programs described in its return (3)
- $81,607 spent. Drug-Free Communities (DFC) Through the funding received for the Drug Free Communities Grant, 3PC has served over 1,000 Peoria residents, both youth and adults, through educational presentations on Fentanyl, marijuana use, vaping, and other drug trends in the community. DFC funding has enabled the coalition to establish a partnership with the Peoria Unified School District, allowing them to serve and educate youth directly. Working with the school district and other community partners, we have developed a diversion program for youth caught at school using vape products (THC or nicotine). This partnership has enabled Peoria youth to access the education and resources necessary to better understand the realities of their choices, along with healthy alternatives. This program has reduced the recidivism rate among students who use and are caught on school grounds. 3PC also participates in Drug Takeback events in partnership with the Police Department, National Guard, and DEA. The coalition helped collect unused or unwanted medication. 3PC also distributes free Naloxone, which is a fentanyl/opioid overdose reversal nasal spray, and provides appropriate education on how to reverse an overdose. In addition, the coalition has distributed print materials at various community-facing events, totaling approximately 2,500 pieces. Our website, which features community resources and education, attracted over 14,500 unique visitors. Our print media reached 108,000 homes.
- $27,300 spent. City of Peoria Opioid Settlement Grant: Opioid Response Settlement Grant helped 3PC distribute information through print material (2,300), more than 10 community presentations reaching 250 people, and participated in 10 community-wide events. The coalition participated in Youth Advocacy Day and the Arizona Drug Summit.
- $14,041 spent. SACLA: Substance Use Block Grant 3PC distributed information through print material, community presentations, and community-wide events.
