Résumé :
The 52nd meeting of the CEWG was held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on June 11-14, 2002 and provided a forum for presentation and discussion of drug abuse data in the United States and other countries and regions of the world, including Canada, Mexico, Africa, and the Middle East. CEWG members presented information on recent drug abuse patterns and trends in their areas. In addition, the meeting afforded the opportunity for a number of special presentations: Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) officials described heroin identification programs - the Domestic Monitor Program and the Heroin signature Program - which were established by DEA's Intelligence Division; researchers from the Philadelphia area presented findings from local studies on patterns of substance abuse among the homeless and among criminal justice clients, on hepatitis C among injection drug users, on the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in eight local neighborhoods, and on creating a comprehensive HIV service system in a managed care environment; and a distinguished panel of researchers presented findings and discussed the effects of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on drug abuse in New York City, Philadelphia, and Washington, DC.
