Preventing Drug Abuse Through Education, Training, and Awareness

Drug Educators Alliance equips teachers, law enforcement, parents, Corporations and community leaders with evidence-based training, free classroom resources, and practical tools to prevent drug abuse before it starts.

Who We Are

At Drug Educators Alliance we envision a world free from the devastating impact of drug abuse. Our mission is to empower educators with the knowledge, tools, and skills necessary to address the root causes of drug abuse and provide effective solutions within their communities. By fostering a global network of dedicated drug educators, we aim to create a ripple effect that eradicates drug abuse worldwide.

With over 20,000 educators trained across all 50 states and more than 5 million young people reached, our programs are making a profound difference in schools, homes, and communities. We’ve hosted hundreds of impactful training events nationwide, equipping teachers, law enforcement, parents, and youth workers with evidence-based strategies. One of our proudest achievements is the creation of a first-time drug offender course, a transformative program that helps arrested youth understand the dangers of drug use and make better life decisions, effectively steering them away from addiction and toward a brighter future.

Our Goal
We are committed to achieving a world where drug abuse is no longer a threat to individuals, families, and societies. This goal drives our every action, from equipping educators to delivering impactful training programs.

Our Purpose
Drug abuse is not just a personal issue, it’s a societal challenge that demands a well-informed response. At the heart of our purpose is the belief that educators play a critical role in combating drug abuse. By understanding the true nature of drug abuse and developing actionable strategies, these educators can create meaningful change. Our purpose is to empower them to do so

What We Do

We equip educators, schools, law enforcement, and organizations with clear, factual, and age-appropriate drug education that actually works. Through in-person training, free classroom programs, court-approved courses, and workplace education, we help people understand the real effects of drugs and make informed decisions. Our approach is grounded in science, delivered at scale, and focused on prevention, early intervention, and long-term impact for youth, families, and communities.
