drug law reform

Drug law reform involves changing existing laws and policies related to the possession, distribution, and treatment of controlled substances. The goal is to shift focus from punitive measures to public health approaches, such as treatment, prevention, and education. Reforms aim to reduce incarceration rates for drug offenses, eliminate the criminalization of users, and prioritize harm reduction strategies. These changes seek to create a fairer, more effective system that addresses the root causes of drug-related issues and promotes safer, healthier communities.
