Drug use in the 60s and 70s
By Staff Reporters
In the 1960’s and 1970’s drug use in the United States continued to grow, peaking in 1979. This was, in part, due to the wide, legal availability of drug paraphernalia like that captured in this picture of a dealer on a street corner near DEA headquarters (then located at 1405 I Street NW in Washington DC) in the late 1970’s.

In order to combat this trend, DEA was asked by the White House to create a model Drug Paraphernalia Law to be implemented and enforced at the state and local level, giving DEA and other partners another tool in the fight against drug abuse.
