DAFC is a Non-Profit organization and has a vision to build a foundation that will educate and support a healthy, safe, drug and alcohol free life style. The Organisation Works together with community partners to prevent and reduce alcohol and drug related problems in Society. To create awareness and prevent drug abuse through education and outreach programs. Balwinder Kahlon and DAFC team reached Toronto on Friday and received tremendous support from the community. A grand welcome to honour Balwinder Kahlon and DAFC team was organised in Sikh Spiritual Center also known as Rexdale Gurughar in Toronto. Members of Southasian Media also honoured Mr Kahlon. Addressing a huge gathering Balwinder Kahlon said "During the last few years the use of Drug and Alcohol is escalating in Punjabi community at large and in particular among the youths. More than ever young adults are engaging with the gangs to involve in the illegal activities. The increased use of alcohol and drug has caused variety of social, family, financial and health related challenges in the community".
