Canadian Drug Policy Coalition
The Canadian Drug Policy Coalition (CDPC) is an organization focused on promoting evidence-based drug policies in Canada. It aims to reduce the harms associated with drug use and improve public health through research, advocacy, and education. The coalition works with various stakeholders, including government agencies, health professionals, and community organizations, to influence drug policy reform.
The CDPC emphasizes a public health approach to drug use, advocating for harm reduction strategies such as supervised consumption sites and access to treatment. By addressing issues like addiction and overdose, the coalition seeks to create a more compassionate and effective response to drug-related challenges in Canadian society.
