Drug Demand Reduction
History and MissionThe Drug Demand Reduction unit (DDR) was formed to take a multi-faceted approach to fighting the war on drugs This statewide program is an aggressive leader in the intervention and prevention of drug use, abuse and associated violence. DDR takes its message into schools and communities by giving educational and motivational presentations, organizing community-based drug and violence-free activities and empowering communities to organize and reclaim their neighborhoods.
Operating under the Bureau of Narcotics Investigations and Drug Control, DDR has reached thousands of teachers, students, parents, guidance counselors, pharmacists, social service workers and other interested citizens with strategies for combating the scourge of drug use in Nevada. What We DoAgents assigned to DDR have established and maintained a strong and active presence with community groups, school districts, business organizations, adult groups and law enforcement entities. This is necessary to develop drug prevention strategies, intervention plans, programs and effective partnerships to deal with issues of substance abuse. Drug Demand Reduction Support Request |

Counterdrug Task Force
I. The National Guard is a war-fighting organization. What we do in The Counterdrug Taskforce must never detract from the combat readiness of soldiers/airmen and units.
II. Success of our program depends on the knowledge and initiative of individual taskforce members. We will develop in our people the expertise necessary to competently and effectively support local Counterdrug efforts.
III. We must always link our operations to a defined problem. All Nevada National Guard Counterdrug operations will be built upon a clear threat assessment.
IV. The Nevada Counterdrug Taskforce is not a free agent in the war against drugs. Our job is support; we will always operate to augment the efforts of a clearly identified law enforcement agency or community organization.
V. The Nevada Counterdrug Taskforce is a military organization providing support to law enforcement. We have a unique responsibility to our organization, the American public and the U.S. Constitution…We will ensure, in doing our jobs here, that we do not violate any citizen’s legal protections, that fellow Nevadans remain free of unwarranted intrusion by military force intended to protect them, and that we operate in accordance with the spirit of our most deeply held beliefs on individual liberty. .
