The drug war has invaded our daily lives with impacts that go far beyond arrests and incarceration. This first-of-its-kind conference will bring together leading thinkers to map the more invisibilized forms of drug war surveillance within civil systems, such as public benefits, family policing, housing, immigration, employment, healthcare, and education. 

Join us on April 27 at 12:00pm ET for a keynote conversation and tune in for the full convening on April 28 from 12:00pm - 6:00pm ET for three panels that will explore the following:

--12:00pm – 2:00pm ET: The range of surveillance technologies – such as algorithms and predictive risk models, digital health and criminal legal data sharing, background checks, and drug testing – deployed within civil systems to monitor people who use drugs or people suspected of using and/or selling drugs

--2:30pm – 4:00pm ET: The actors, policies, and practices – such as mandatory reporting laws, nuisance laws, behavioral modification interventions, and collaborations between police and civil systems – that govern people’s lives outside of the purview of the criminal legal system

--4:30pm – 6:00pm ET: The impacts of drug war surveillance and the levers of change at the policy, programmatic, and individual levels

Join the conversation to learn how we can work together to expose the ways the drug war creates systems of surveillance that have seeped into our daily lives and what we can do to dismantle it.

Sincerely,

Director, Civil Systems Reform
