Today is United Nation's World Drug Day: International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking, where "on this [day, UN Secretary-General, Ban Hi-moon calls] on countries and communities to continue to improve the lives of everyone blighted by drug abuse by integrating security and public safety with a heightened focus on health, human rights, and sustainable development."
This year's theme is 'Listen First', which is an initiative to increase support for prevention of drug use that is based on science and starts with listening/ understanding those affected. "It is thus an effective investment in the well-being of children and youth, their families and their communities."
Mindfulness can help by:
Increase your listening skills to help those affected
Using Urge Surfing practices to overcome drug addictions.
Using mindfulness to help carers who care for those affected by addition.
