The Drug Policy Foundation
has announced the availability of a grant to foster the creation of a national
Methadone Support and Advocacy Network. The Methadone Network is
designed to encourage methadone supporters to identify and build consensus
around policy issues that meet their own needs while providing decision-makers
and other stakeholders with insight into both the effectiveness of methadone
and the needs of methadone clients. The network will be comprised
of consumers (past and present methadone clients), organizations founded
and/or run by methadone clients, methadone providers as appropriate and
related supporters of methadone and methadone clients (such as harm reduction
organizations, needle exchange programs, other drug treatment consumers
and supporters, families, friends and significant others of current and
former methadone users). A grant award between $50,000-$100,000 is
anticipated.
For further information,

DC 20008, (202) 537-5005 (phone), (202) 537-3007 (fax), e-mail [email protected].
