Help Us Get Drug Prevention on the White House’s Radar

If you care about preventing and reducing substance abuse, then we need your help right now! CADCA has posted a petition to raise the profile of effective drug prevention on the White House’s “We the People” website. If we can get 25,000 people to sign on to the petition by Nov. 4, then the Administration will discuss the issue.

If you haven’t already signed this petition, then please take a minute of your time to sign on NOW. CADCA’s petition is the only petition on the website focused on drug prevention. There are at least 12 petitions pushing for the legalization of drugs with thousands of signatures. We know that drug prevention matters to you so please sign our petition and forward on to your friends, family and colleagues. Anyone older than 13 can sign.

Help us send a message to the president! We have to prove that our issue matters to the American public!
