Project Prevention, a group from North Carolina, is offering addicts in Honolulu $300 if they agree to pregnancy prevention methods such as hormone shots, patches or IUDs. To date they have paid more than 3000 addicts. By my calculation that is about $900,000. One could say that this also adds to the drug problem because these same people are probably using the money to feed their habits. How does a group convince people to donate money for this? Do they have a commercial that shows how for just $3 a day you can adopt and fulfill the drug needs of Tommy, age 26?
