SSDPedia is a drug policy encyclopedia that anyone with an SSDP account can edit.
Students for Sensible Drug Policy envisions a world where drug abuse is treated as a public health issue rather than a criminal justice issue and where individuals are free to make decisions about what to put into their own bodies, so long as their actions do not infringe upon anyone else’s freedoms or safety. We believe that this world can be brought about through focused research, honest dialogue, and informed debate. SSDPedia is a means to that end.

Featured Article
Brown University SSDP is an extremely active SSDP chapter located in Providence, RI. It received the 2005 Outstanding Chapter Award and its consistently dedicated leadership has made it a model for SSDP chapters since its inception in 2002.
It was founded in September 2002 by Ben Kintisch, then in his final semester at Brown. Ben started Brown SSDP by attending the Brown University Student Activities Fair with a card table, a pen, and a sheet of lined paper. He had not registered for the Activities Fair like the other groups, but was able to find an empty space big enough for the table he'd brought, and set up shop by labeling his paper "Brown SSDP. Name. Email."
Jesse Stout was the first student to sign up. Nathaniel Lepp was the second.
