A new force has entered Liberia’s anti-drug campaign, with a bold and compassionate agenda to heal communities and restore hope.
Conacce Chaplains Global Corporation, an internationally recognized faith-based organization, has officially launched its Liberia Chapter, announcing a groundbreaking initiative that places women and girls at the center of drug rehabilitation efforts.
Head of the Liberia Chapter, Commander Albert Benson, revealed the plan during a colorful Thanksgiving service, and accreditation ceremony held on Sunday, September 14, at the Philadelphia Church in Paynesville.
The event marked the organization official recognition, and capacity-building program, drawing a crowd of faith leaders, community stakeholders and well-wishers.
“Our priority is to rescue and rehabilitate our sisters and daughters caught in the trap of substance abuse,” Benson said with conviction.
“For every three females, we will include one male; this is not to exclude our young men, but to respond urgently to the silent suffering of women and girls, who are often overlooked in this national crisis.”
The organization’s initiative comes as the country intensifies its fight against the drug epidemic.
In January, President Joseph Nyuma Boakai declared substance abuse a national health emergency, pledging robust government action to curb the scourge.
Conacce Chaplains Global says it is ready to complement that effort with practical interventions on the ground.
Benson said the group has already secured two rehabilitation centers in Montserrado County, with additional facilities planned to meet the growing demand.
Three communities have also been identified as starting points for outreach and rescue missions, targeting vulnerable youth in drug-infested ghettos.
“We are aiming for a drug-free Liberia,” Benson said, adding: “A drug-free society means peaceful communities, reduced violence and safer streets.
The future of this country rests on saving our young people.”
The organization is funding its initial operations independently, while opening its doors to local and international partners, who share the vision of a drug-free Liberia.
Benson highlighted that members of the Liberia Chapter have undergone rigorous international training as anti-drug specialists and counselors, equipping them to tackle the crisis with professionalism and compassion.
“This fight is bigger than any single community; it is about the soul of the country,” he said.
“We have been prepared, and now we are ready to work alongside the government, community leaders, and every Liberian of goodwill to rescue our nation from drugs.”
With its inspiring launch, Conacce Chaplains Global Corporation is positioning itself not just as an anti-drug group, but as a movement of hope, healing, and transformation, determined to rewrite the story of country’s next generation.
