UPDATE: Stop Urban Outfitters From Selling Products that Promote Prescription Drug Abuse
Thanks to you, we are gaining momentum to put a stop to Urban Outfitters selling products made to look like prescription pill bottles!
U.S. Congressman Hal Rogers (KY) has sent a letter directly to Richard A. Hayne,
CEO and Chairman of Urban Outfitters, encouraging him to “remove these
items from the shelves immediately so as not to contribute to this
epidemic” [of prescription drug abuse].
Along with Rogers, Kentucky Attorney General Jack Conway, who co-chairs the Substance Abuse Committee of the National Association of Attorneys General, has joined the effort.
In just the past few days, various media outlets have brought this to the public’s attention, including ABC News, Associated Press, The Huffington Post, News 4 WOAI (thanks to our alliance with The San Antonio Council on Drug and Alcohol Abuse), UPI and more!
We’re not done, because we still haven’t received a response from Urban Outfitters.
Please take the time to tweet your plea. Here are some sample tweets:

If you can’t tweet, we encourage you to invite your family, friends and colleagues to sign and share the Facebook Causes Petition today.
Thank you,

Psalm 63:9,10
But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth. They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.
But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth. They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.
Tracy couldn't believe the girls at school would be so cruel. She never
did anything to any of them, but they were always finding some way to
hurt her. It was all she could do to keep from telling them all off. Her
mother told her to ignore them, but that was hard to do. Her mother
also said that they would eventually have to pay for all the nasty
things they did, but Tracy wished that day would come soon.
No one likes to be picked on. Some people love to spend time making
others unhappy. These people will have to answer to God for their
actions. We are called to love one another and to look for ways to give
one another encouragement. While the nasty people will answer in shame
for their deeds, the kind will rejoice with Christ in heaven.
Prayer: Help me to shrug off the unkind words and
actions of the pe ople around me. Lift me above the hurts that come from
unthinking and cruel people. Teach me to respond in love, no matter how
I am treated. Amen.

Narconon Saves Lives
A Narconon graduate from two years ago took the time to recently
write a letter of appreciation to the staff about he has continued to
prosper since graduating from the Narconon program. James learned, like
many others, that the Narconon program isn’t just about staying clean –
it’s about learning those basic life skills essential to success and
happiness. That is why Narconon is the New Life Program. Here is the
letter.
“Dear Staff,
My
life has been amazing since I graduated from Narconon. I use the tools
I learned there every day and I wanted to give you some examples.
In
the Narconon Communication course I learned to stand my ground, without
losing my temper, even if someone was being insulting. I used to get
angry with people who talked down to me and would get into a lot of
fights. I couldn’t control my anger – but now I am totally different
and I have been amazed at myself for being calm in certain situations.
I
used to think that I could only communicate to people who were similar
to me. Narconon taught me that I am very capable of communicating with
every class mate that I have in college. I just have to find points of
common reality. I talk to people now, that before, I would have thought
that I was not good enough to talk to. This lesson helped me in a
government class. I had to teach the class about media politics. I
wanted to reach all the students – those who were interested in the
topic and those who weren’t. I was successful in this goal and I
received many compliments.
At Narconon I
learned to study. This is important for success. I received a 91 on
my first paper of the year. In this particular class, I have done well
on the tests and have the highest grade in the class.
At Narconon I
learned about anti-social people and how much people can affect your
life. Now I do not associate with anyone in college unless I think they
are trying to better their lives. I do not want to be around anyone
who is going to try and bring me down.
I hope one day I can help a person as much as Narconon helped me. Narconon gave me the opportunity to make my life better and stop living a worthless life. I am thankful to the Narconon program.
Love,
