National Families in Action is a small, nonprofit-leaning coalition based in Atlanta, Georgia, that brings together families, scientists, physicians, addiction specialists, policymakers, and other stakeholders to protect children from addictive drugs. The organization emphasizes aims such as promoting healthy, drug-free kids and expanding access to medicines developed from cannabis and other plants, alongside advocating for scientifically accurate information and education and a cautious approach to drug policy. Its work targets families and communities seeking safer environments for children and prudent medical and regulatory decisions, including positions on controversial topics such as cannabis products and access to FDA clinical trials for pediatric epilepsy. In addition to its advocacy focus, the group calls for a balanced policy response that reduces incarceration while addressing addiction and drug safety. A recent development noted is its call for FDA expanded access to Epidiolex® for children with epilepsy, illustrating its engagement with policy discussions around pediatric treatment options.
