About Us
Our Commitment to a Drug-Free Community
I Choose to Be Drug Free, Inc. is a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting healthy, drug-free lifestyles through prevention education, community outreach, advocacy, and youth empowerment. Our mission is to educate, empower, and support youth, families, and communities in making informed decisions that lead to healthier, drug-free lives. Through coalition-building, educational initiatives, leadership development, and community partnerships, we strive to create positive and lasting change while reducing the impact of substance use in our communities. Together, we are building safer, stronger, and healthier futures for the next generation.

Why We
Exist
I Choose to Be Drug Free Inc. exists to address youth substance use before it becomes a crisis. Too often, communities respond only after harm has occurred. We believe the most meaningful change happens earlier—when young people are guided, supported, and equipped to make healthy choices.
Our work focuses on prevention, education, and collaboration, recognizing that youth do not make decisions in isolation. Families, schools, and communities all play a role in shaping the paths young people take.
Prevention is not about restriction—it is about opportunity, clarity, and choice.
Meet the Team
Our organization is led by officers who provide strategic direction, operational oversight, and financial stewardship in support of our mission. Together, they ensure that I Choose to Be Drug Free Inc. operates with integrity, accountability, and a clear focus on youth substance use prevention.
