Dear Friend of Drop the Rock,
Please mark your calendars
and join us for our next Drop the Rock Coalition meeting on Wednesday, September 10th at 6:00PM at the Correctional
Association (2090 Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Blvd. Suite 200, at 125th Street in Harlem).
Drop the Rock Empowerment Day
Invitation and Call for
Volunteers!
On
Saturday, September 27th Drop the Rock will bring people together across New York City and State to build political
power in the communities targeted by the Rockefeller Drug Laws.
We’ll
have teams of young people, community leaders, faith leaders, and concerned residents in neighborhoods around New York aiming
to:
1. Collect petition signatures
calling for the repeal of the Rockefeller Drug Laws;
2. Register
New Yorkers to vote; and
3. Educate
New Yorkers on the continuing harsh effects of the Rockefeller Drug Laws.
We plan to have teams in the following neighborhoods:
Central
Harlem
East Harlem
Washington Heights
South
Bronx
Jamaica
Red Hook
East
New York
Bedford-Stuyvesant
Fulton Mall, Brooklyn
Hempstead,
Long Island
* We encourage participation from other neighborhoods.

Sign up for your Neighborhood Team today!
To get involved in Empowerment
Day please contact Caitlin Dunklee,
Drop
the Rock Coordinator at 212-254-5700 x 339 or cdunklee@correctionalassociation.org.
Together,
we can engage more New Yorkers in the movement for repeal, strengthen our call for change, and hold policy makers accountable
to the communities that are most impacted by the Rockefeller Drug Laws.
Drop
the Rock!
