Collaboration is Key!

Dr. Don English, Executive Director

The San Bernardino Countywide Gangs and Drugs Task Force (GDTF) is committed to a strong leadership role in coordination, collaboration, and communication between education, law enforcement, the criminal justice system, social services, probation, mental health, children and family services, elected officials, private enterprise, and the community-at-large.

The GDTF provides vital information and resources to prevent and stop the alarming trends that poison our neighborhoods and cripple our communities.

The world we live in is filled with hurdles that families must navigate. Many of our youth and their families have experienced trauma and need tremendous amounts of support—physically, mentally, and emotionally. As a community, we must provide hope for these families.

Moving forward, we must all come together as a society and a nation to help families overcome the climate of despair perpetuated by gangs and drugs. Together, we can make a substantial impact in the lives of youth and their families. We will make a difference!
