We believe drug addiction isn’t just a personal failure — it’s a neurological and social crisis. Drugs hijack the brain’s reward system, making it nearly impossible to simply “choose” to stop. Many commit crimes not from intent, but from impaired judgment. Yet we believe prisons only punish and isolate, ignoring the root cause. Without proper treatment, addiction can worsen behind bars. We feel it’s time to replace punishment with recovery and invest in real, lasting solutions.
