About Addiction Policy Forum
Addiction Policy Forum aims to eliminate addiction as a major health problem by translating the science of addiction and bringing all stakeholders to the table. We lead the fight against the deadly consequences of addiction and help patients, families, and communities affected by the disease. Founded in 2015, Addiction Policy Forum works with states and communities across the country to end stigma, help patients and families in crisis, and translate the science around addiction. For more information, visit our website at www.addictionpolicy.org or email us at info@addictionpolicy.org.
