The Jackson County Drug Task Force is a multi-agency / multi-jurisdictional law enforcement initiative dedicated to the identification, investigation and prosecution of those individuals responsible for the violation of local, state and federal statutes associated with the procurement, manufacture, distribution
and / or sale of drugs and narcotics

In support of the mission, the JCDTF utilizes the resources of 29 investigative and clerical personnel.  These resources  are  drawn  primarily  from  five  contributing  agencies:   Blue Springs PD (3), Grandview PD (3), Independence PD (6), Lees Summit PD (3), Raytown PD (3), and the Sheriff's Department (5).
 

The objectives of the JCDTF are twofold:

• Provide the immediate response to those drug problems which pose imminent threat to the security and well-being of the community.

• Provide a long-range identification and analysis of emerging or anticipated drug problems so as to develop an efficient and effective law enforcement response.
