Drug Policy
Common Sense for Drug Policy is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated
to reforming drug policy and expanding harm reduction. CSDP disseminates
factual information and comments on existing laws, policies and practices.
CSDP provides advice and assistance to individuals and organizations and
facilitates coalition building. CSDP supports syringe exchanges, the
expansion of Methadone and Buprenorphine availability and other public
health measures to reduce harm to users and restrict the spread of HIV /
AIDS and Hepatitis C. CSDP advocates the regulation and control of marijuana
in a manner similar to alcohol and subject to local option. CSDP favors
decriminalizing the use of hard drugs and providing them only through
prescription. CSDP also advocates clear federal guidelines for the practice
of pain management so that physicians need not fear unwarranted law
enforcement scrutiny of medical practices.

PARC is a prison abolitionist group committed to exposing and challenging
the institutionalized racism of the prison industrial complex. We are also
committed to developing and practising anti-oppression as individuals and in
our organization. PARC believes in strategies and tactics that build safety
in oppressed communities without reliance on the police or the PIC. We
produce a directory that is free to prisoners upon request, and seek to work
in solidarity with prisoners, formerly incarcerated people, their friends
and families. We also work with teachers and activists on prison issues.
This work includes building action networks and materials that expose human
rights violations.
