Welcome to the Livingston County Community Alliance Website!Who We Are: We are a county-wide, anti-drug coalition that aims to unite the Livingston County community to reduce and prevent youth substance use and to live a safe and drug free lifestyle. Our purpose is to connect the Livingston County community to establish and promote healthy community norms concerning the use of alcohol, drugs, and tobacco. The LCCA’s annual Report to the Community Each year, the LCCA creates an annual Report to the Community. This highlights all of the coalition’s accomplishments, recognizes our community partners, and gives the community more information about how we reduce and prevent youth substance use! Our Report to the Community was published on Sept 30 in the Sunday edition of the Livingston County Press & Argus. If you missed it, you can still read it here: DFC Annual Report FY 17-18. The coalition would like to extend their gratitude to everyone who helped create the report and to Livingston County community members that support reducing and preventing youth substance use.

Walgreens Take-Back Day The Big Red Barrel, Livingston County Drain Commissioner, and Walgreens teamed up to help you dispose of unused prescription medication AND sharps, safely and securely.
