Creating a Safer and
Healthier Environment
The West Contra Costa Alcohol Policy Coalition (WCAP) is dedicated to fostering a safer community for our youth by addressing the challenges posed by alcohol and cannabis. Our coalition brings together a diverse group of like-minded people, including community members, educators, health professionals, and policymakers, all working collaboratively to create and sustain a healthier alcohol and cannabis landscape for the West Contra Costa County communities.
Preventing Cannabis and Alcohol Misuse
for a Healthier Future
Accurate and Relevant Information
The coalition aims to provide accurate and relevant information about the risks associated with alcohol and cannabis use. Our educational initiatives target parents, educators, and young people, empowering them with the knowledge needed to make informed decisions.
Monthly Coalition Meeting
WCAP values the community’s involvement in our efforts. We have monthly coalition meetings to update community members on coalition activities and offer members the opportunity to get out into the community and conduct store assessments, table at community events, or speak at local council meetings in regard to relevant issues. By working together, we can create a unified front against the issues of substance use in West Contra Costa County.
Promoting Safer Environment
We advocate for policies that promote a safer environment for our communities. WCAP works to support and implement changes that regulate the availability and accessibility of alcohol and cannabis to minors, along with supporting measures that encourage overall community health.
