Our Mission
The mission of Impact Spartanburg is to reduce the misuse of substances, including alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs, among youth and young adults in Spartanburg County.
Impact Spartanburg monitors several factors that affect knowledge, attitudes and behaviors related to substance misuse To address the underlying needs and local conditions, the coalition uses the nationally recognized Strategic Prevention Framework (SPF) as an inclusive and comprehensive planning process to support necessary action plan items that promote community change.
Our activities are made possible through the support of our community, The Forrester Center for Behavioral Health, and grants like the Drug Free Communities Grant.
