I have not been particularly impressed with the local and state organizations
that could-should-would reflect the interests of the health promotion
profession and professionals, (or nursing either, for that matter) but the
by-word of the decade has been collaboration. I have experienced both failures
and successes in collaborative efforts, but, when collaboration works, it
works well. Unification is useful if the collaborators are unable to support a
strong organization, but, if the organizations are strong enough financially
and professionally, and if the leadership has the willingness to put aside
personal issues, collaboration, with one of it's goals being to support and
strenthen each organization, would probably be more effective in the long run.

Hi everyone,
I'm interested in what health professionals think of the current
anti-marijuana media spots. There are four of them. "Drive-thru," "Den,"
"Couple," and "Concert." I am particularly interested in whether you
believe these are effective, and why or why not.
Thanks for taking a minute to share your thoughts.
