the State legislature in support of our Just a Nickel
a Gallon Campaign
EVERY NICKEL COUNTS FOR ADDICTION TREATMENT
Parent-To-Parent
launches JUST A NICKEL
A GALLON CAMPAIGN
because as parents we’ve found it necessary to take matters
into our own hands because our state elected officials
have been unwilling to increase the tax on alcohol – even
by JUST A NICKEL A GALLON–
to increase addiction treatment opportunities in New Jersey.
Short-Term
Goal
Raise money for our addicted children, who otherwise would
not be able to be treated for their addiction; continuing
this effort - one nickel at a time - until the goal of
increasing the alcohol tax by just a nickel a
gallon is met.
Your
nickels add up to help someone access the addiction treatment
they need:
- 3800
NICKELS will buy one inpatient
day.
- 1300
NICKELS will buy one outpatient
day.
|
Long-Term
Goal
Identify grass roots advocates ready to build an advocacy
campaign aimed at passage of legislation to increase
addiction treatment opportunities by increasing the
alcohol tax by JUST
A NICKEL A GALLON. |
 |
Your
support for JUST A NICKEL A GALLON tax increase
will
generate $10 million in revenue for addiction treatment
and help to save 3,800 lives. |
YES!
