CCCSAPR: a new approach to drug policy research in the twenty-first century. California Collaborative Center for Substance Abuse Policy Research.

The California Collaborative Center for Substance Abuse Policy Research (CCCSAPR) was established in 1997 to provide a nucleus for policy research in addiction and allied fields throughout the nine University of California campuses and allied research endeavors. The primary goal of CCCSAPR is that of providing data on statewide and national substance abuse issues toward the development and maintaining of a coherent substance abuse policy in the state of California. The authors present the history and scope of the Center as a new approach to drug policy research for a new century.
