Our Mission
“Foster a safe, informed, and resilient Deadwood — where neighbors support one another, protect the environment, and work together to build a thriving, interconnected community.”

Our Goals
The Deadwood Community Association (DCA) organizes its efforts through five key groups focused on communication, environmental protection, community safety, health, and food security.
Our goals include establishing a neighborhood communication network; supporting local producers, the co-op, and the farmer’s market to ensure access to healthy food amid economic and climate challenges; improving access to medical care and providing support for homebound residents; building partnerships with regional organizations and advocating for essential services and disaster preparedness; and protecting our environment by monitoring logging activity, opposing chemical spraying, and addressing watershed impacts.
