Events and conferences are
coming up around the country. One major annual gathering is the conference
of the National Organization for the Reform
of Marijuana Laws (NORML), taking place this year from March 31 to
April 2 in San Francisco. This is a great opportunity to learn and
to meet and get to know fellow reformers -- DRCNet will be attendance,
so look for us if you're there.
Later in the month, April
21-23, the North American Syringe Exchange
Convention will reconvene in Tacoma, Washington.
Later in the year, November
9-12, further south in Long Beach, California, the 2005 International Conference
on Drug Policy Reform will be convened by the Drug
Policy Alliance. This is expected to be a big one -- DRCNet will
be there too.
And for those of you in Britain
or with a taste for travel, the International
Conference on the Reduction of Drug-Related Harm will meet in Belfast,
Ireland, later this month from March 20-24.
There are many local events
coming up around the country -- see our Reformer's
Calendar to learn more -- New York, Wisconsin, Washington, Utah, are
just a few locations where you can come out and be a part of the movement.
Keep an eye out in the calendar for more upcoming Perry Fund events by
DRCNet, too, including June 1 in Seattle. Hope to see you there!
