Thanks for the welcome and helpful information, Desertsky. Wikipedia‘s notability criteria for organizations, “Organizations are usually notable if the scope of activities are national or international in scale and information can be verified by a third party source,” suggests that this is a notable organization.
Two third party sources are:
Community Anti-Drug Coalition of America
Is anything else needed to demonstrate notability? Thanks again.Chris Longoria 03:16, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
