evaluate the merit of the anti-drug advertising campaign from a social perspective. should the government be involved in this effort or its PDFA the more appropriate organization?
Anti-drug advertising campaign is a media campaign which informs people generally the youths about the side effects and demerits of taking drugs. This types of campaigns are very important for building a healthy economy and society.
From a social perspective there are many merits of this anti-drug advertising campaign like-
Though PDFA, (the partnership for a drug free America) which is a non profit organisation especially for running campaigns against teenage drug abuse in the United States is an appropriate organisation for this but, the government should also be involved in this effort as it is also the work or duty of the government to work for the betterment of the people in the country. This drugs are ruining the present as well as futures of not only these youths but the whole country so the government should involve and take strict actions so that the effect of this on society is minimal.
