The Drug Policy Alliance (DPA) is a leading organization in the United States dedicated to ending the drug war and advocating for drug policy reform. Comprised of individuals impacted by the drug war, including those who have lost loved ones to overdose and individuals in recovery, the DPA works towards building a future shaped by love rather than war. Their mission involves repairing the harms caused by the drug war, promoting a non-punitive and equitable drug market, and reinvesting resources into communities most affected by prohibition.
The DPA focuses on various issue areas, including community reinvestment, decriminalization of drugs and investment in health services, ending civil punishment associated with drug use, advocating for legal regulation and safer drug supply, ensuring marijuana reform prioritizes health, justice, equity, and reinvestment, promoting the establishment of overdose prevention centers, and rethinking punishment for individuals involved in the drug trade. Through their work, the DPA aims to create a drug policy that prioritizes public health, safety, and social support, while challenging the stigma and fear associated with drug use and sales.
