Prevent the harms of alcohol and other drug use through education, intervention, and advocacy
Our Mission
A community where we prevent alcohol and substance misuse, support recovery, and confront stigma.
The Prevention-Intervention-Education-Recovery-Support (PIERS) Task Force is dedicated to finding avenues to reduce substance misuse in Ketchikan; specifically eliminating use amongst youth. The members of the task force are volunteers from various walks of life; from the counselors to mothers of recovering addicts, all coming together for the good of the community. Our main purpose is to provide assistance and recommendations for the continuous improvement of awareness and education in regard to substance misuse. We invite the community to join our task force. It will take all of us working together to achieve a Drug-Free Community.
