Abstract
As long as what is referred to colloquially as the “crack house” statute is still on the books, OnPoint and other overdose prevention centers (OPCs) will have to prove they are legal in spite of that law. But Rob Kent, former legal counsel for the federal Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) and before that, the New York Office of Addiction Services and Supports (OASAS) has ideas for how to do so. “I hate the term,” said Kent, but it is what is used, and the 1986 federal law bans the use or maintenance of any place for the purpose of using illegal drugs.
