Outreach

The object of the Community Outreach element is to place local CAP units in the forefront of their community to communicate a drug-free message to youngsters. Cadets and unit members partner with base and local community coalitions to support anti-drug activities.  Together, they provide essential and supplemental assistance to community outreach activities. Check within your local community at law enforcement agencies, schools, etc. for ways in which you can assist with, not only formal drug-free campaigns, but other community events as well. The following is a very incomplete list of different events and outlets in which you can work within your community:

• Red Ribbon Leadership Academy
• Official Red Ribbon Week Proclamation
• Family community centers
• Community health fairs
• Base-sponsored community activities
• Base open houses and air shows
