What is Fair Treatment?

Formed by the Uniting Church NSW/ACT and Uniting in 2018, the campaign now includes more than 75 partner organisations.

We all want to live in a world where everyone is treated with dignity and respect, including people who use drugs.

To achieve this, we need increased access to treatment services, especially in rural and regional areas, and introduce a compassionate, health and wellbeing-based response to personal drug possession.

Stand with us and together we can make this a reality.
