Advocacy and How You Can Be Involved

Our advocacy focuses on stricter regulations, improved safety measures in nightlife venues, and better support systems for survivors. We collaborate with lawmakers, community leaders, and businesses to create safer environments.

The Drink Safety & Protection Act
Drink spiking and drug-facilitated assaults are growing public safety concerns, yet most states lack clear training or response systems to prevent them. At Unspiked, we believe it’s time for action.
The Drink Safety & Protection Act is a proposed national initiative aimed at strengthening prevention and response to drink spiking incidents. This act combines two urgent needs — education for nightlife staff and better support for victims — to create safer nights for everyone.
Prevention Through Awareness & Training
- Require bars, clubs, and event venues to provide annual training for employees on recognizing and responding to suspected drink spiking.
- Teach signs of spiking and how to intervene safely.
- Establish response plans for assisting victims and preserving evidence.
- Encourage venues to offer safety tools like cup covers, test kits, or tamper-proof lids.
- Every staff member trained is one more protector in the room.
Protection Through Testing & Reporting Reform
- Require hospitals, clinics, and police departments to provide comprehensive toxicology testing within 24 hours of a reported incident.
- Ensure survivors can access prompt and respectful medical testing.
- Establish a national reporting database to track drink-spiking cases and identify patterns.
- Improve coordination between medical and law enforcement systems for faster, trauma-informed responses.
- Everyone deserves to be heard, tested, and believed.
What does Unspiked’s advocacy involve?
We push for legislative changes that increase penalties for offenders and require venues to implement preventive measures. Our team also raises public awareness about the risks and signs of drink spiking through campaigns and partnerships.
How can I support Unspiked’s advocacy efforts?
You can help by signing petitions, contacting your local representatives, or sharing our educational materials. Volunteering at events and participating in community discussions also strengthens our collective voice.
Are donations used for advocacy work?
Yes, contributions fund research, campaign development, and lobbying activities. Donations also support survivor programs and training for venue staff to recognize and prevent drink spiking.
Can I get involved if I have no prior experience?
Absolutely. We provide resources and guidance for newcomers interested in advocacy. Whether you want to spread awareness online or join local initiatives, there are many ways to contribute effectively.
