Drug Rehab - Alberta

The annual estimated cost of substance abuse to Alberta, including drug rehab centers, is about $4.4 billion. This translates to more than $1,400 per person per year.

There were more than 18,000 adults seeking drug rehab through the Alberta Alcohol and Drug abuse Commission for drugs other than alcohol, yet only about ten percent actually received some kind of residential drug rehabilitation program. How do you know which ones work? Contact us and we can help find a successful drug rehab center.

According to the Canadian Addiction Survey, approximately 80% of people in Alberta over the age of 15 are considered to be current drinkers, and 17% of past-year drinkers are classified as high-risk drinkers, which would result in the necessity of a good alcohol and drug rehab center.

More than 15.4% of Albertans reported using marijuana in the past year, but the number skyrocketed for young adults aged 18-19, as nearly have of them tried it in the past year. An additional 3.5% reported using an illicit drug other than marijuana. The overall percentage of people in Alberta using crack or other forms of cocaine has increased significantly in the last twenty years, while the use of other drugs such as heroin, LSD and methamphetamine has remained in the same range. However, all of North America has seen a substantial rise in the number of young adults abusing prescription drugs.

While these statistics aren't surprising, they do outline the need for drug rehab programs that can help people overcome addiction. Contact the Drug Rehab Help Line today for immediate assistance.
