In the mid 1990s it reorganized as NICAP to lead advocacy for federal legislation endorsing student drug testing, which succeeded with enactment of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001. NICAP continues today with nation-wide advocacy of state government support and local school adoption of random student drug testing programs.
