The Butler County Prevention Coalition and Addiction Taskforce is designed to foster cross-sector collaboration and co-creation of strategies that work in addressing substance use in our community. The Butler County Prevention Coalition, Mental Health Addiction and Recovery Services Board, and Health District have come together to streamline our work and join with community partners to make a bigger impact.
