We are working to create healthy attitudes and community wellness for all of Tangipahoa Parish, by recognizing and addressing alcohol, tobacco and other drug abuse as a serious social and public health issue.

TRACC is working to achieve a comprehensive system of substance abuse prevention in Tangipahoa Parish through the implementation of the Strategic Prevention Framework process that is data driven, outcome based, and sustainable.
