Families & Friends for Drug Law Reform believes prohibition laws are more the problem than the solution. It seeks alternative laws that minimise the harms.

This is so painful especially after 30 years of advocating for drug law reform and harm reduction. What a pity heroin on prescription wasn’t agreed to back in 1997. It would have reduced the reliance on the black market that kills.

We need more than a piecemeal approach. Comprehensive reform that ends the black market and provides real, sustainable resourcing for best practice harm reduction is what is needed, Australia-wide. See @harmreductionau ED @Annie_Madden_ in @theage today...
