WELCOME TO

PARCC

Prevention and Response Columbia County (PARCC) was born from the overwhelming Opioid Epidemic. In February of 2015, group of concerned citizens, from a variety of backgrounds came together to address treatment and prevention efforts within our county. To this day, PARCC continues to meet to discuss how we can better serve all populations within Columbia County.
