Timeline
On December 4, 2019, Dr. Sabet, in his capacity as President and CEO of SAM, accepts an award from D.A.R.E. International for SAM's "endeavors in advancing marijuana policies aligned with the scientific understanding of the harm and consequences of legalization of marijuana" during an educational benefit luncheon in New York.
Sabet is the recipient of the Nils Bejerot Award given in conjunction with H.M. Queen Silvia of Sweden and was one of four Americans (along with Jonathan Caulkins, Bertha Madras, and Robert DuPont) invited by Pope Francis to the Vatican's Pontifical Academy of Sciences to discuss marijuana and other drug policy. He was invited to speak at the Allen and Co. Sun Valley Investor's Conference in 2018.
In the 2018 legislative sessions, Sabet and SAM have been active with coalitions in successful efforts to defeat marijuana legalization and commercialization bills in Illinois, New Hampshire, and Vermont. While Vermont decriminalized marijuana possession in 2013 and allowed for personal use and "home-grow" in 2018, Sabet and SAM have worked with partners to defeat outright commercialization such as seen in Colorado, California, and Washington. In North Dakota, Sabet and SAM allies campaigned against a ballot measure to legalize cannabis that was defeated.
In September 2016, Sabet appeared at a forum at the Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the United States Senate, where he stated he had "props" of two bags of candy meant to emulate THC-infused candy. After the forum concluded, Sabet left both bags of candy unattended, which were subsequently stolen by a pro-legalization activist.
Through the work of SAM, Sabet has been an active voice in successful campaigns to stop marijuana legalization initiatives in Ohio (2015), and legislative initiatives in New Jersey. In New Jersey, Sabet and SAM have partnered with senators, including Senator Ronald Rice, pastors, community organizers, and other public health and safety advocates to resist Governor Phil Murphy's push to commercialize marijuana in the state.
With Patrick J. Kennedy, Sabet co-founded Smart Approaches to Marijuana in Denver in January 2013.
Kevin Abraham Sabet-Sharghi (born February 20, 1979) is a former three-time White House Office of National Drug Control Policy advisor, having been the only person appointed to that office by both a Republican (Administration of George W. Bush) and Democrat (Obama Administration and Clinton Administration). He is also an assistant professor adjunct at Yale University Medical School, a fellow at Yale’s Institution for Social and Policy Studies, the Director of the Drug Policy Institute, and a courtesy assistant professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Florida.
