The National African American Drug Policy Coalition (NAADPC) is a coalition of pre-eminent African American professional organizations in Washington, D.C. that aims to promote drug policies and laws that address the public health nature of drug abuse and provide a more effective and humane approach to tackling the chronic societal problem of drug abuse.
With a focused agenda, NAADPC serves as a non-partisan forum for developing and advocating for policies and practices related to substance abuse in the African American community. Comprised of experienced judges, lawyers, social workers, substance use counselors, physicians, nurses, psychologists, and PhD researchers, the coalition provides subject matter expertise and a scientifically grounded perspective to the ongoing debate on public health versus punitive approaches to drug abuse.
