Drug Rehab

Like the rest of the states in the country, Utah receives federal funding for drug rehab, prevention and interdiction programs and initiatives. Federal grants for the state have included areas such as Substance Abuse and Mental Health Block Grants, Safe and Drug-Free Schools and Communities and High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area Programs.

The drug problem in Utah is headlined by multiple substances. Of course there are the usual culprits like cocaine and marijuana, but methamphetamines, heroin, painkillers and other prescription drugs have risen to the top for rehab admissions.

Utah has implemented multiple programs to help curb the pharmaceutical abuse problem, such as prescription drug monitoring, drug take-backs and a controlled substance database.

With prescription drug abuse and fraud becoming so prevalent around the country, states like Utah have thankfully become more apt to divert non-violent drug offenders to drug rehab programs rather than prison, especially for first-time offenses. This affords individuals the opportunity at recovery and is less expensive than incarceration.
