Throggs Neck Community Action Partnership (TNCAP)

The Throggs Neck Community Action Partnership (TNCAP) is an urban coalition which has been working together to prevent alcohol and other substance abuse among our youth since 1998. Our membership of over 35 organizations meets monthly to plan and collaborate on projects that recognize and address the diverse needs of Throggs Neck in the southeast section of the Bronx, New York. The coalition is under the auspices of the Archdiocese of New York Drug Abuse Prevention Program. The coalition continues to thrive through current funding from the federal government’s Center for Substance Abuse Prevention and the NYS Office of Addiction Services and Supports (OASAS). Since its inception, TNCAP takes pride in implementing policy and environmental strategies that positively impact people’s lives. Visit TNCAP’s New Website! tncapbx.org
