Socially-Protective, Peaceful, Orderly and Safe

The DILG has encouraged LGUs to organize their respective ADACs. These multi-sectoral councils are responsible for the formulation of plans, and the implementation of local anti-drug abuse programs, projects, and activities. A series of related policies reiterating the organization of local ADACs, and enumerating their specific roles and responsibilities have likewise been issued, one of which is Joint Memorandum Circular (JMC) No. 2018-01 between the DILG and the Dangerous Drugs Board which provides for the implementing guidelines on the functionality, and effectiveness of local ADACs.
