We have been approached by a consortium of local social service agencies to explore how we might work with them to increase awareness on the dangers of methamphetamine use. This is a serious problem in our area and in the Northwest. Is anyone aware of examples of exhibits or programming that deal specifically with methamphetamine addiction? 
 
The agencies we are working with are quite specific in their feeling that they need to go beyond general drug addiction awareness and want to consider working with a museum to explore alternative education methods. However, I would also be interested in general addiction exhibits, knowing that we may not be able to get that specific and still reach a broad audience.
 
Thanks for any thoughts on this.
