Abstract

Many of the organizations maintain Internet web sites that can provide immediate access to a range of materials and, in many cases, linkage to other relevant organizations and resources. A web site has also been initiated as a resource dedicated to addressing drug addiction issues among displaced persons. Information on 32 government and private organizations is presented that includes name, address, telephone and fax numbers, and Internet addresses.
