Narconon Arrowhead says that there is a real need for drug rehab in Los Angeles

Los Angeles is well known as a High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area, what is being done to stop the drug abuse and trafficking to make Los Angeles a safer place?

According to the Los Angeles High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area Drug Market Analysis, Los Angeles is one of the nation’s principal illicit drug production and distribution centers in the United States. One of the reasons for this is because drug traffickers smuggle drugs that are produced in Mexico over the border and into the state. The most prevalent drugs that are reported in the Los Angeles area are marijuana, cocaine, methamphetamine, PCP, Mexican black tar heroin, and MDMA. These drugs are readily available and abused on a daily basis.

The DEA and Law Enforcement of Los Angeles are putting forth their best effort in trying to shut down the production and trafficking of these drugs. They have already tightened the ropes on Los Angeles International Airport and crossing the border as well. Although they are so diligently trying to stop the drug world, it is still going strong.

Methamphetamine or “Ice” is a highly toxic and addictive illicit drug being used by a growing number of adolescents and adults. It is one of the most prevalent drugs found and being abuse in Los Angeles. An estimated 1.3 million individuals reported using methamphetamine over a year span. Methamphetamine use has rapidly emerged as the leading cause of admission for substance abuse treatment in Los Angeles. In 2005, it accounted for nearly 30% of all treatment admissions, compared to only 10% in 2000. Also, arrests related to methamphetamine have increased by 100% in the last three years.
