Drug Policy Alliance

The Drug Policy Alliance (DPA) is a U.S.-based organization that advocates for drug policies grounded in science, health, and human rights. It aims to reform the legal framework surrounding drug use and possession, focusing on issues like the decriminalization of drugs, the reduction of incarceration for drug offenses, and the promotion of harm reduction strategies. The DPA believes that treating drug addiction as a public health issue rather than a criminal one can lead to better outcomes for individuals and communities. They work towards change through advocacy, education, and policy initiatives at local, state, and federal levels.
