Safe Injection Sites versus Criminalization of Drug Use.

Safe Injection Sites versus Criminalization of Drug Use.

I really like to find new topics that are current for our discussions… This LA Times article from May 26th 2019 highlights a new program in San Francisco for safe injection sites. Please be clear, this is only new to the USA, other countries lead the way as they have seen that decriminalizing drug addiction in order to get people into treatment is more successful that jailing them. It was then rejected by our legislature. Read the articles as background and then research these types of programs internationally. As always use peer reviewed research, APA or MLA citation formatting, minimum of 500 words

There are at least 8 other countries (and there may be another state) that have experience with decriminalization, so if you see 4 other students who have written about a specific country, you need to find another one.
