The Roundtable on the Promotion of Health Equity will host a one-day workshop on the Role of Drug Control Policies on Individual and Community Health for People of Color. The goals of the workshop are to better understand how drug control policies and laws affect people and communities of color; to examine the effects of race and ethnicity on drug policies in the criminal justice process and to explore promising models and best practices for new ways to handle drug convictions in the criminal justice system.
