DPEG

Drug Policy Education Group

Our mission is to move public opinion sufficiently to achieve the repeal of marijuana prohibition so that the responsible use of cannabis by adults is no longer subject to penalty.

Drug Policy Education Group, Inc. (DPEG) formed in late 1999 as a statewide reform organization in Arkansas. We provide newsletters, information, and project participation to any Arkansas resident who shows an interest. Our board is statewide, with one African American, several low-income, wide range of age, five women and eight men. We interact with other state entities such as ACLU, state and campus NORML, League of Women Voters, political parties, and national groups including DPA, NORML, LEAP, and MPP. We have helped in the formation of reform groups in Tennessee, Oklahoma, and Missouri.
