In April 1985 Mrs. Reagan expanded her drug awareness campaign to an international level by inviting First Ladies from around the world to attend a two-day briefing in Washington, D.C., and Atlanta, Georgia, on the subject of youth drug abuse.  During the 40th Anniversary of The [[United Nations]] in 1985, Mrs. Reagan hosted 30 First Ladies for a second international drug conference.  She was also the first American First Lady to address the Third Committee of the United Nations General Assembly whose meeting she attended in October 1988. <ref>[http://www.reagan.utexas.edu/archives/reference/nrbio.html Reagan Library/U of Texas archives]</ref>
