The DEA Museum Foundation is honoring Mrs. Betty Sembler today with its 2008 Lifetime Achievement Award in Washington, DC in recognition of her thirty years of leadership and commitment to fighting drug abuse and drug addiction through her international support of law enforcement, treatment and education/prevention efforts.
Mrs. Sembler actively participated in the White House Conference for a Drug Free America, the Governor’s Drug Policy Task Force in Florida and helped establish nonprofit drug treatment programs across the U.S. She is the founder and president of Drug Free America Foundation and Save Our Society From Drugs (S.O.S.). She is currently the vice-chairperson of D.A.R.E. International and serves on the Florida National Guard Multijurisdictional Counterdrug Training Advisory Board. Accompanying her husband on his missions to Australia and Italy as United States Ambassador, she has constantly stood for sound drug policy and a drug free lifestyle for over thirty years.
The DEA Museum Foundation is an independent, nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting the mission of the DEA Museum and Visitors Center in Arlington, VA. This public/private partnership serves to educate the American public on the long, complex and tragic history of drugs in America, and on the many costs and consequences of drug use on our society.
