DescSSDP trained thousands of students in grassroots skills such as organizing, leadership, public speaking, community education, fundraising, and advocacy. We educated students about drug policies including those related to changing marijuana and other drug prohibition policies to be more sensible and less punitive, promoting harm reduction/overdose prevention practices, providing evidence-based drug education, and teaching students about international drug policy, racial justice, civil rights, human rights and their constitutional rights. The national staff organized one international and six regional conferences on similar topics for more than 400 students. See Schedule O for continuation.Desc
