ONDCP Model State Drug Laws Initiative
With the release of President Obamas first National Drug Control Strategy in 2010, the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) has been coordinating a government-wide public health and public safety approach to reduce drug use and its consequences in the United States.
The Obama Administration recognizes that drug use is a threat to the Nations public health, and that drug addiction is a preventable and treatable disease.
ONDCP pursues a balanced and comprehensive approach to drug control policy - an approach that includes prevention, early intervention, treatment, recovery, and law enforcement.
The Office of National Drug Control Policy expects to award one Federal grant under the Model State Drug Laws Initiative, for an annual period, beginning in approximately April 201 4. Under the Initiative, a successful applicant will conduct research and analysis, provide technical assistance, and draft model legislation on current and emerging drug and alcohol-related issues.
The successful applicant must also maintain a web-based resource center on state drug and alcohol laws and related statutes, policies and programs for use in advising States on establishing laws and policies based on Model State Drug Laws.
