Drug-Free Schools and Community Act

Liberty University is committed to providing a safe and healthy environment for all students and employees. Liberty University’s Drug and Alcohol Abuse Prevention Program (DAAPP) seeks to provide students and employees support regarding the use and abuse of drugs and alcohol.

The Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act (DFSCA), as detailed in 34 CFR Part 86, requires institutions of higher education to certify that they have adopted and implemented a drug and alcohol abuse prevention program.

In our DAAPP you will find university policies and regulations related to drug and alcohol abuse prevention; local, state, and federal laws regarding drugs and alcohol; the health risks associated with the use of drugs and alcohol; the programs and intervention efforts provided by the university; and the disciplinary sanctions associated with violations of university policies and regulations.

In addition, Liberty University must conduct a biennial review in order to measure the effectiveness of its DAAPP and to ensure consistent treatment in enforcement of its disciplinary sanctions.
