Description

The Obama Admin.äó»s inaugural National Drug Control Strategy, published in 2010, charted a new course in our efforts to reduce illicit drug use and its consequences in the U.S. -- an approach that rejects the false choice between an enforcement-centric äóìwar on drugsäó and drug legalization. The 2010, 2011 and 2012 Strategies established and promoted a balance of evidence-based public health and safety initiatives focusing on key areas such as substance abuse prevention, treatment, and recovery. The 2013 National Drug Control Strategy provides a review of the progress made over the past four years and looks ahead to continuing efforts to reform, rebalance, and renew our national drug control policy to address the public health and safety challenges of the 21st century. Since 2009, the Federal Government has spent more than $31 billion on drug control, including $10.7 billion in FY 2013 for substance abuse prevention and treatment programs. A useful resource for anyone interested in learning what is being done äóî and what other work can be done äóî to stop drug production and trafficking, prevent drug use, and provide care for those who are addicted. Figures. This is a print on demand report.
