Overview
Mission
To prevent and reduce the use of drugs and alcohol among youth by using a comprehensive approach to engage and educate children, parents, and community members.
What it reported doing in 2024
Recovery Month & Overdose Awareness ActivitiesDuring National Recovery Month, Northport/East Northport Community Drug & Alcohol Task Force leads community-wide awareness efforts by turning the town purple, hosting a candlelight vigil for Overdose Awareness Day, and providing educational outreach that promotes understanding, reduces stigma, and supports individuals and families affected by substance use disorder. These events highlight prevention resources, honor lives lost, celebrate recovery, and connect community members with information on treatment, support, and wellness. All activities are offered as a public service to foster hope, compassion, and a supportive community response to addiction.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
