Dear friend, For
more than 20 years, Tony Newman has played a pivotal role in shifting
the narrative around drug policy in the United States. He was one of the
first employees at the Drug Policy Alliance and has been central to
designing winning public relations strategies that have changed the way
people think about drugs and drug user health. His work helped lay the
groundwork for historic victories on marijuana legalization, the reform
of the Rockefeller drug laws, harm reduction expansion, and
more. Every step of the way Tony has
worked alongside people who use drugs, advocates, and organizations like
VOCAL-NY to uplift the voices of directly impacted individuals to tell
their own stories in their own way. For years he's supported VOCAL-NY in
getting our quotes in national and local media outlets, providing
mentoring and support as we've grown our communications department, and
even trained our staff on how to engage with the media. We're lucky to continue working with him now that he's at Vital Strategies, working nationally to end the overdose crisis. Beyond all his professional accomplishments, Tony is also an ardent supporter of our
work always showing up to support our campaigns or toast to our successes. We are thrilled to be able to honor him at this year’s gala! In Solidarity, Alyssa & Jeremy |
