This program is administered by local law enforcement. But really, consider what the US surgeon general said about this program in 2001:

“In 2001, the Surgeon General of the United States, David Satcher M.D. Ph.D., placed the D.A.R.E. program in the category of “Does Not Work.”[5] The U.S. General Accountability Office concluded in 2003 that the program was sometimes counterproductive in some populations, with those who graduate from D.A.R.E. later having higher rates of drug use (a boomerang effect).” [from wikipedia]
