 To amend the National Narcotics Leadership Act of 1988 to establish a 
     program to support and encourage local communities that first 
 demonstrate a comprehensive, long-term commitment to reduce substance 
               abuse among youth, and for other purposes.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Drug-Free Communities Act of 1997''.

SEC. 2. NATIONAL DRUG CONTROL PROGRAM.

    (a) In General.--The National Narcotics Leadership Act of 1988 (21 
U.S.C. 1501 et seq.) is amended--
            (1) by inserting between sections 1001 and 1002 the 
        following:

         ``CHAPTER 1--OFFICE OF NATIONAL DRUG CONTROL POLICY'';

        and
            (2) by adding at the end the following:

                   ``CHAPTER 2--DRUG-FREE COMMUNITIES

``SEC. 1021. FINDINGS.

    ``Congress finds the following:
            ``(1) Substance abuse among youth has more than doubled in 
        the 5-year period preceding 1996, with substantial increases in 
        the use of marijuana, inhalants, cocaine, methamphetamine, LSD, 
        and heroin.
            ``(2) The most dramatic increases in substance abuse has 
        occurred among 13- and 14-year-olds.
            ``(3) Casual or periodic substance abuse by youth today 
        will contribute to hard core or chronic substance abuse by the 
        next generation of adults.
            ``(4) Substance abuse is at the core of other problems, 
        such as rising violent teenage and violent gang crime, 
        increasing health care costs, HIV infections, teenage 
        pregnancy, high school dropouts, and lower economic 
        productivity.
            ``(5) Increases in substance abuse among youth are due in 
        large part to an erosion of understanding by youth of the high 
        risks associated with substance abuse, and to the softening of 
        peer norms against use.
            ``(6)(A) Substance abuse is a preventable behavior and a 
        treatable disease; and
            ``(B)(i) during the 13-year period beginning with 1979, 
        monthly use of illegal drugs among youth 12 to 17 years of age 
        declined by over 70 percent; and
            ``(ii) data suggests that if parents would simply talk to 
        their children regularly about the dangers of substance abuse, 
        use among youth could be expected to decline by as much as 30 
        percent.
            ``(7) Community anti-drug coalitions throughout the United 
        States are successfully developing and implementing 
        comprehensive, long-term strategies to reduce substance abuse 
        among youth on a sustained basis.
            ``(8) Intergovernmental cooperation and coordination 
        through national, State, and local or tribal leadership and 
        partnerships are critical to facilitate the reduction of 
        substance abuse among youth in communities throughout the 
        United States.

``SEC. 1022. PURPOSES.

    ``The purposes of this chapter are--
            ``(1) to reduce substance abuse among youth in communities 
        throughout the United States, and over time, to reduce 
        substance abuse among adults;
            ``(2) to strengthen collaboration among communities, the 
        Federal Government, and State, local, and tribal governments;
            ``(3) to enhance intergovernmental cooperation and 
        coordination on the issue of substance abuse among youth;
            ``(4) to serve as a catalyst for increased citizen 
        participation and greater collaboration among all sectors and 
        organizations of a community that first demonstrates a long-
        term commitment to reducing substance abuse among youth;
            ``(5) to rechannel resources from the fiscal year 1998 
        Federal drug control budget to provide technical assistance, 
        guidance, and financial support to communities that demonstrate 
        a long-term commitment in reducing substance abuse among youth;
            ``(6) to disseminate to communities timely information 
        regarding the state-of-the-art practices and initiatives that 
        have proven to be effective in reducing substance abuse among 
        youth;
            ``(7) to enhance, not supplant, local community initiatives 
        for reducing substance abuse among youth; and
            ``(8) to encourage the creation of and support for 
        community anti-drug coalitions throughout the United States.
