The NAACP focus is the furtherance of equal opportunities for all citizens regardless of race, creed or color.  To that end, we sponsor events that involve the public from Drew County and the surrounding area.  As part of the national initiative, the branch’s goal is to implement effective local civil rights programs with focus in the areas of civic engagement, economic sustainability, education, health, public safety, criminal justice and youth work.
