Despite these criticisms, the foundation remains committed to its mission of preventing drug abuse and addiction.<br /> <br /> ==See Also==<br /> * [[Substance abuse]]<br /> * [[Drug policy of the United States]]<br /> * [[Drug education]]<br /> * [[Preventive healthcare]]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Drug control law]]<br /> [[Category:Non-profit organizations based in the United States]]<br /> [[Category:Drug policy organizations]]<br /> {{organization-stub}}</div>
