Dear Rick:
Without a doubt, the abuse of drugs and alcohol is America's number one domestic problem. Our nation has suffered tremendously because of lax attitudes towards this frightening problem. We can no longer take lightly the overdoses, accidents and ruined lives we so often hear about, especially among our nations youth's.
I am convinced, if we are going to see change in the drug problem, our communities and schools must decide that drugs will no longer be tolerated. One of the great allies we have in winning the War on Drugs is the activities of organizations such as yours in the private sector, doing their best to make a difference.
Thanks for all you do.
Sincerely,
Doug Wead
Special Assistant to the President
for Public Liaison
