Resource page supporting academics who wish to engage in harm reduction, anti-racist, drug policy reform. Founded in January 2016, DPA's Department of Research and Academic Engagement (DRAE) works to bridge the divide between research and effective drug policies. Our drug policies are driven by ideology, politics, stigma, greed, and/or racism rather than the evidence about what works. We at DRAE believe that it is more important than ever to promote policies grounded in scholarship and that policymakers need tools to access and use research.
