Appalachia
HIDTA
Maps: Region | Kentucky | Tennessee | West Virginia
| Mission Statement:
The mission of the Appalachia HIDTA is to reduce
measurably, and particularly as it relates to marijuana, the production and
trafficking of illegal drugs in its immediate area, to reduce drug-related violent
crime in the region, and to reduce the impact that HIDTA drug production and
trafficking have on other areas of the United States. Although marijuana is its
primary focus, the Appalachia HIDTA responds to the threat posed by the illicit
traffic of other drugs as required. Central to this mission is the expansion of
cooperative, multi-jurisdictional law enforcement efforts involving HIDTA funded
and non-HIDTA funded resources.
