NDASA Foundation
Who We Are
Empowering communities. Changing lives.
Our Mission
The NDASA Foundation is the nonprofit arm of the National Drug and Alcohol Screening Association, dedicated to advancing education, prevention, and recovery in the fight against substance misuse.
To advocate for and educate toward drug-free communities.
Substance misuse doesn't just affect individuals — it impacts families, schools, workplaces, and the health of entire communities. That's why we take a comprehensive approach, supporting those on the front lines of prevention, safety, and recovery.
What We Believe
We are a coalition of educators, advocates, professionals, and leaders united by a shared vision: a nation where every individual has the tools, knowledge, and support to lead a healthy, substance-free life.
Grounded in science, guided by integrity, and driven by compassion, the NDASA Foundation bridges public health, education, workforce, and policy to drive meaningful impact across the country.

Education as Prevention
We create and share accessible, evidence-based resources for students, families, and professionals.
Advocacy for Change
We work with legislators and community leaders to support policies that promote accountability, safety, and recovery.
Support for Drug-Free Workplaces
We partner with employers to build healthy environments through training, tools, and outreach.
Empowering the Next Generation
We engage youth and educators with real-world programs that build resilience and informed decision-making.
Our Work in Action
Through community initiatives, national partnerships, public awareness campaigns, and hands-on training, the NDASA Foundation delivers real, measurable outcomes.
From classroom-based education to workplace safety programs and legislative advocacy, we are committed to building safer, healthier communities — one initiative at a time.

Change happens when communities unite. Whether you're an educator, a parent, a policymaker, or a professional who believes in the power of prevention, your voice matters.
