CPA is a member-driven, grassroots organization whose mission is to support prevention professionals in eliminating substance abuse. We are a non-profit, 501(c)3 organization.

Since 1976, CPA has kept the needs and concerns of the prevention professional and the field of substance abuse prevention as its key focus, and today it continues to be the foremost voice for prevention in Pennsylvania.

We are part of a collaborative coalition that united both The Centre Region Care Partnership and the Centre County Communities That Care organizations in 2005 in an effort to enhance substance use and abuse prevention initiatives in Centre County
