Texas Drug Rehab

Every time you turn on the news or read the newspaper, there are reports of drug trafficking and drug related crime in Texas. Sharing a border with Mexico makes the entire state of Texas a high intensity drug trafficking area. It is hard enough to handle the drug problem plaguing Texans right now, and with more and more drugs pouring in to the state, many ask themselves, will the problem ever get handled?

Data from NSDUH (National Survey on Drug use and Health) stated that in 2004-2005, approximately 460,000 Texas citizens reported needing but not receiving drug treatment for illicit drug use within the past year. This is over two and one half percent of the population of Texas. It was later reported by the Office of National Drug Control Policy that in 2005 there were 43,039 admissions to drug treatment facilities in Texas and 43,858 in 2006. With less than 200,000 people actually getting in to a drug treatment facility and the number of individuals suffering from drug addition rising every year, how can anyone not lose hope that they can get their life back and make finding effective drug treatment a high priority in their lives?

“Numerous individuals call Narconon Arrowhead every day from Texas looking for drug treatment” states Rebecca Pool, C.A.D.C. (Certified Drug and Alcohol Counselor). “We see more people check in to Narconon from Texas than any other state and part of the reason for this is that there are not enough effective drug treatment programs in Texas for the hundreds of thousands of individuals that are addicted to drugs.”

The residents in Texas have a hard time finding effective drug treatment. The number of people addicted outweighs the drug treatment programs Texas has to offer. Narconon can help Texans with their drug treatment problems. It is probably safe to say that a long-term, residential drug treatment program is exactly what the majority of Texans need with their addictions being so severe. With hundreds of individuals dying every year due to drug related issues, what is it going to take to make drug treatment a higher priority for Texas?
