[drugawareness] DC Conference Set for

International Coalition for Drug Awareness

 

The conference for the International Coalition

for Drug Awareness is set for the 12th of September,

with a get together dinner the night before for all

who would like to join us then. Thanks to Mathy

Downing for all of her help in setting up a place

for us to hold it. PLACE: The Mongomery Country Club in Laytonsville,MD

[see directions below]DATE & TIME: September 12th from 3:00 - 9:00 PM

(some may gather an hour or two sooner that day)PRESS CONFERENCE: We will open our meeting up to the

press from 4:00 - 5:30 PM so that they can meet the

families and prepare stories centered around the FDA and Congressional hearings.We will eat one meal there costing about $15 - $25

each in order for us to use the facility that day.

Because of this we need to know how many of you intend to attend so that we can let them know how

many to prepare for. So please RSVP if possible ASAP.Each of our directors should give a report on their

own areas and let us know what they are doing where

they are to raise awareness so that we can all get ideas from one another and get to know one another

better and learn more about why each of us are

involved in this group and cause. For those around

the country who cannot make it to the meeting, I

am going to arrange for a phone conference with

them because I want everyone to have a voice whether

they can make it to this meeting or not.I also have every news piece or media spot even

done on this issue from the beginning that we can

have there for those who would like to see any of

them or we could play them while we eat or whatever. Please give me feedback on everything you would

like to see happen that day. I want a plan of

action in place as we go into the FDA hearing on

the following day. There should be a lot of media

interest and we need to know how to handle that

to maximize the potential to save more lives. I

need to send out info to the e-group on all of

the details. I want all of you to give me feedback.

This OUR group, not my group. The International

Coalition for Drug Awareness was established for

the families to have a way to educate the world

about these deadly drugs that are destroying

America's families in every way imaginable.Thanks so much to all of you for all you do. I do

not say that often enough because I don't know how

to slow down long enough to even take a breath. Dr. Tracy ______________Ann Blake Tracy, Ph.D., Executive Director, International Coalition For Drug AwarenessAuthor: "Prozac: Panacea or Pandora? - Our Serotonin Nightmare"
