FW: Survey about CCSA Priorities / Sondage sur les priorités du CCLT

Wednesday, December 16, 2015 | | 0 comments

 Hi all,

Please take a minute to complete this survey from the CCSA.  Updating their framework is a really good idea.

If you are interested in the “what have we missed” final text box I added the following…...

Drug prohibition is crumbling around the globe. The CCSA should be a leader in the development of a regulated market for all currently illegal drugs based on public health principles.  The goal is to maximize the benefits and minimize the harms of all currently illegal drugs.

Please spread this out widely.

Cheers,

Mark Haden

Survey: Evaluating Priorities in the National Framework for Action

 

Dear colleagues,

We are writing to ask for your help. It has been 10 years since the launch of the National Framework for Action to Reduce the Harms Associated with Alcohol and Other Drugs and Substances in Canada. It is time to revisit the priorities that were established by the Framework.

We value your input and invite you to participate in our three-question survey, which provides a unique opportunity to help shape future approaches to alcohol and drugs in Canada.

The survey can be completed on your computer or mobile device and should only take three minutes to complete. You can access the survey at this link.

All responses must be submitted by Monday, January 11, 2016.

Please note that we do not collect any personal or identifiable information, so your responses will be anonymous.

If you have any questions about this survey, or the National Framework generally, please contact Robert Eves, Director, Strategic Partnerships and Knowledge Mobilization by email at REves@ccsa.ca or by phone at 613-235-4048, extension 260.

Many thanks,
