Open Philanthropy recommended a grant of $30,000 to You Are Not Alone (YANA), via Ohio Voice, to support a national mobilization effort to decriminalize drug possession. Open Philanthropy's criminal justice reform team believes YANA’s work could help reduce incarceration levels and generate public support for the implementation of more measured responses to drug use.
This falls within Open Philanthropy's focus area of criminal justice reform.
