3. Ending the New Jim Crow:
Mapping the Future of Drug Policy in NYC
Over the last 40 years, the official drug policy of the
both the U.S. and NYC has been the war on drugs.
This war has failed to improve health and safety in our
communities, and has led to criminalizing health
issues, mass incarceration, rising overdose deaths,
disease transmission, lack of access to healthcare and
education, fiscal waste, violations of civil rights and civil
liberties, the school-to-prison pipeline, and appalling
racial disparities.
The war on drugs is the New Jim Crow.

policies, based in public health and safety, where
government is
-coordinating efforts across agencies
-ending racially biased policing
-reducing barriers to treatment and services
-promoting effective prevention education
-addressing collateral consequences
-identifying and reducing fiscal waste
Ending the New stigma, and more
