New scientific studies published in some of the world’s best medical journals (see link below for the studies) are showing that cannabis is likely causal in twice as many cancers as tobacco, as well as most birth defects. Massive population studies are now confirming what decades of laboratory research into the physiological effects of cannabis had already discovered. Yet the media mostly refuses to cover press releases from drug prevention organisations drawing attention to these studies, leaving medicinal and recreational cannabis users in the dark about the damage it is doing. Its damage to mental health is likewise being largely ignored by the media. DFA request your support for this very important gofundme cause.

Who we are
Drug Free Australia is a peak body, representing organizations and individuals who value the health and wellbeing of our nation. It plays a key role as a community voice, staying in touch with every day Australians - families and young people - via newsletters, community forums and the media, to ensure a clear message of healthy, drug free lifestyles is assured for generations to come.
Drug Free Australia’s position Statement
A balanced, humane drug policy where law enforcement, combined with well-resourced education and public health practice, together with international cooperation, will help us reap the benefits of effective prevention and demand reduction initiatives. Appeasement to the seductive chorus of calls for decriminalisation will only lead to greater uptake of illicit drug use. Those who offer this panacea of legalisation coupled with regulation have yet to demonstrate any practical means of regulation and should be held to account.
