This movement has gained momentum through a variety of recent trends, including increased recognition of the importance of public-private partnerships to address complex social problems, the recognition that social problem s are embed ded in local conditions, and recogni tion of the need for more coordination in a fragmented helping services system. More recently, the use of communit y partnerships or coalitions have gained prominence as a n effective approach to deal with the growing methamphetamine (meth) problem. Success with this model has been documented in such state s as Washington, Oregon and Kansas as well as here in California, in San Diego Co unty. It was in recognition of the serious conseq uences as sociated with methamphetamine use in Calif ornia, and th e potential of community coalitions to abate the p roblem, that the Govern or’s Prevention Advisory Council’s (GPAC) Me thampheta mine Implementation Workgroup in conjunct ion with the Department of Alcohol and Drug Pro grams’ Technical Assistance contr actor, The Center for Applied Research Solutions (CARS), prepared this guidebook for community coalitions. The material in this resource guidebook reflects current information about meth, and evidenced based approaches used by community coalitions to deal wit h the meth problem, representing a coordinated, multi-disciplinary approach to t he meth problem which int egrates prevention, early intervention, treatment, and suppre ssion efforts. It also in cludes a comprehensive resource di rectory to assist community members in seeking out additional information. Meth use represents a serious problem to our California communities. However, the concerned involvement of our community members, in partnership with appropriate agencies and organiza tions can make a differ ence. It i s our hope that this resour ce manual will assist y ou in your ef forts in dealing with this drug crisis in California. Nancy Matson Chairperson GPAC Meth Implementation Workgroup Spring 2007 Building and Sustaining a Methamphetamine Community Coalition Preface 2 Acknowledgements This Resource Guide was prepared as a result of the combined efforts of a number of individu als who came together under the auspices of the Governor’s Prevention Advisory Council (GPAC), a collection of state agencies and organizations wh o have joined efforts to reduce the problematic use of alcohol and other drugs by youth and adults in California. What began as a sugge stion by Deputy Director of the California Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs (ADP) Michael Cunningham to focus the Council’s efforts on the prevention of methamphetamine use evolved into the creation of a fact-finding Ad Hoc Co mmittee o n Methamphetamine. This group, und er the dire ctionof Lee Chamberlain, formerly of the Drug Enforcement Administration, met nu merous times between November, 2004 and March, 2005, to research the preventi on side of methamphet amine use. During this period, the Committee analyzed information on the current status of methamphetamine use and prevention efforts both state- and nation-wide and engaged the Community Prevention Initiat ive (CPI), t he technica l assistance contractor f or the Department of Al cohol and Drug Programs, to prepare a back ground briefing paper on these topics. The Ad Hoc Committee’s findings resulted in five recom mendations for Council action, issued through asummary report highlighting the Committee’s process, analysis, and recommendations. In March, 2006 the Ad Hoc Committee evolved into the Methamph etamine Implementation Workgroup, which was charged by GPAC with putting into action the Ad Hoc Committees’ rec ommendations. Under t he new lea dership of Nancy Mats on of the At torney Gen eral’s Office , and with new me mbership, the Meth Implement ation Workgroup created action pla ns for these recommendations, and selected initial goals for pursuit. The group focused on the recommenda tion to creat e Meth Action Teams at the locallevel (county) by first researching other action team models for lessons learned and guidelines, and th en focusing on how to imp lement this model across California. The Workgroup chose to create their own how-to guide for California counties on setting up action teams, and developing

    THE CRIMINALIZATION OF PREGNANCY: RIGHTS, DISCRETION, AND THE LAW by GRACE ELIZABETH HOWARD A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Political Science Written under the direction of Cynthia R. Daniels And approved by ________________________________________ ________________________________________ ________________________________________ ________________________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey OCTOBER, 2017 ©2017 Grace Elizabeth Howard ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION The Criminalization of Pregnancy: Rights, Discretion, and the Law By GRACE ELIZABETH HOWARD Dissertation Director: Cynthia R. Daniels In my dissertation I conduct an inquiry into the legal phenomenon of pregnancy-specific crime. I discuss my theory of pregnancy exceptionalism in US jurisprudence, explore whether these laws are applied evenly in the population, and if not, why, and ultimately ask how, when, and if the law matters in practice. In order to answer these questions, I analyze pregnancy related US Supreme Court opinions to understand the court’s interpretation of the constitution as it relates to pregnant or potentially pregnant women. Next, I conduct a systematic analysis of state bills and statutes creating pregnancy-specific crimes, with an emphasis on the prosecution of pregnant women for crimes against the fetuses they gestate. Then, I examine arrest cases of pregnant women for crimes against their fetuses in the three states where such crimes have been officially codified: South Carolina, Alabama, and Tennessee. Next, I present my analysis of interviews with prosecutors involved in developing these punitive policies, in order to understand their motivations for doing so.

A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Milwaukee, Wisconsin December 2012 ABSTRACT Corticosterone-Induced Potentiation of Cocaine Seeking: A Potential Role For Organic Cation Transporter 3 Evan N Graf Marquette University, 2012 While it is known that stress plays a role in the relapse of cocaine-seeking behavior, recent studies demonstrate that stress may be acting as a “stage setter” rather than directly triggering further cocaine use. This model suggests stimuli that do not normally evoke relapse under stress-free conditions may result in drug seeking when the exposure occurs under stressful conditions. In this study, we examined the corticosterone-dependent potentiation of cocaine-induced reinstatement by a stressor, electric footshock (EFS), in rats following cocaine self- administration and extinction. We found that in rats with a history of drug exposure under low intake conditions, footshock alone did not reinstate cocaine seeking, but did result in a potentiation of reinstatement in response to a subthreshold dose of cocaine (2.5 mg/kg, ip.).
