DRCNet
Launching
StopTheDrugWar.org
Web
Site
11/6/98
P>This afternoon, DRCNet will
be launching the first sections of what will be a unique, major new reform
web site. The stopthedrugwar.org web site will be more than a DRCNet
web site, but a gateway to both the issues and the movement, designed to
inform people about the consequences of current drug policy, while connecting
them with the groups that are working in their areas of interest and other
resources and opportunities for involvement.
When fully developed, stopthedrugwar.org
will point visitors to organizations and resources in their states as well
as in their issues. Today we are presenting the first of our issue
overviews, giving readers an introduction to topics such as chronic pain,
drug-related AIDS, medical marijuana, kids in the drug war, and more, and
ask for your feedback. Check it out at http://www.stopthedrugwar.org
and let us know what you think.
We anticipate that stopthedrugwar.org
will become our principal means for promoting DRCNet and bringing new people
into the movement. You can help! Stick a link or banner on
your web site, write about it in your newsletter, put a bumper sticker
on your car or other visible locations. (Bumper stickers sent free
to all making donations, and upon request to those who have made donations
in the past or who can't afford to donate. E-mail your requests to
[email protected]
-- normally we just send one, but if you have a use for more, tell us what
you will be doing with them, and we'll consider your request.)
Note that stopthedrugwar.org
will not supersede our current web sites, drcnet.org and druglibrary.org,
but will play a new and different role. Stopthedrugwar.org is being
built as a "gateway to the movement"; drcnet.org will continue to be "DRCNet
Central" while druglibrary.org will continue to be "Information Central".
