The primary aspects with which support will be required include; the initiation of community policing program as way of addressing drug abuse, initiation of community education programs with regard to negative impacts of drug abuse as well as the essential aspects of community policing, and furthering the desire to improve criminal justice operations in handling drug abuse and distribution cases without the feeling of discrimination among the marginalized groups. These areas also requires consistent feedback on their progress in achieving the desired goals. Furthermore, the improvement of the understanding of the factors which are associated with drug abuse, which include; depression and/or stress as well as behavioral and social complexities. The comprehension of these factors are critical in advancing the fight against drug distribution and abuse; hence a feedback on the regard is essential.
