About A New PATH (Parents for Addiction... Healing and Treatment) -
A New PATH works to reduce the stigma associated with addictive illness through education and compassionate support, and to advocate for therapeutic rather than punitive drug policies. We are anon-profit advocacy organization of parents, concerned citizens, individuals in recovery, healthcare professionals and community leaders working together to educate the public, media and decision makers about the true nature of the disease of addiction, reduce the harms of current drug laws and expand access to treatment services.
We advocate ending discriminatory drug policies that serve as roadblocks to recovery. We are bringing focus to our country's failed drug policies and the havoc they have wreaked on our families in our current campaign "Moms United to End the War on Drugs." We are leading a growing national movement dedicated to stopping the violence, mass incarceration and overdose deaths that are the result of current punitive and discriminatory drug policies. We started our movement in 2000 with our executive director Gretchen Bergman chairing the groundbreaking "Treatment instead of Incarceration" Prop 36 campaign.
