This is an important organization and it shouldn't be deleted.Chris Longoria 14:48, 11 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the welcome and helpful information, Desertsky. Wikipedia‘s notability criteria for organizations, “Organizations are usually notable if the scope of activities are national or international in scale and information can be verified by a third party source,” suggests that this is a notable organization.

Two third party sources are:

Community Anti-Drug Coalition of America

Activist Cash

Is anything else needed to demonstrate notability? Thanks again.Chris Longoria 03:16, 13 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

The Coalition for the Prevention of Alcohol Problems is a national coalition of temperance-oriented groups co-chaired by George Hacker of the Alcohol Policies Project at the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI)) and Stacia Murphy of the National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence (NCADD), based in Washington,D.C.

Members of the Coalition include the Woman's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU]), The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon Church), the American Council on Alcohol Problems, the Temperance League of Kentucky, the General Board of Global Ministries, and the Illinois Church Action on Alcohol & Addiction Problems among many others.

The Coalition’s Steering Committee meets weekly in Washington, D.C., to set its agenda and plan its political strategy.

The NYT article briefs and business article removed from the main article are probably more appropriately listed on the talk page for assistance in determining notability and adding information:
