r e : F O R M. A benefit and art auction for the Drug Policy Alliance at Cheim & Read, New York
September 3, 2008 - 6:00pm - 9:00pm

The Drug Policy Alliance is the nation’s leading organization of people who believe the war on drugs is doing more harm than good. Few public policies have undermined fundamental civil rights and liberties, social justice and public health for so long and to such an extent as the drug war. The U.S. now has the highest incarceration rate in the world—one American adult out of every 100 is currently behind bars. Of these 2.2 million citizens in prison, roughly a quarter are there for nonviolent drug offenses. More than 1.5 million arrests are made each year in the U.S. for simple drug law violations—forty percent of those just for marijuana possession.
