The National Alliance for Drug Endangered Children (National DEC) exists to help you make a difference in the lives of children who are in danger because their parents or caregivers are manufacturing, dealing or using drugs. We work to create and sustain multi-disciplinary DEC alliances around the country. We support state DEC alliances in transforming their local communities, by:
Connecting practitioners across disciplines to increase expertise and enhance their work with children and families.
Educating the public about this issue and ways to help.
Advocating for funding and services to assist drug endangered children.
We encourage you to explore the National Resource Center. You can learn about best practices and recent research, discover training opportunities, and pose questions to our national experts.
We are united in the commitment to support, rescue, shelter, and defend children who are being harmed by drugs.
