Substance Abuse in New York

New York has historically been affected by substance abuse. Most Long Island families have been affected by substance abuse in some way. One major problem in the state, the Drug Enforcement Administration recently announced, is that drug traffickers have begun lacing counterfeit prescription pain medication with the powerful narcotic fentanyl. The result of this is increasing fatal drug overdoses when people unknowingly take the laced substances.

The governor of New York, aided by other state leaders, has put together a comprehensive plan to increase funding for drug abuse rehabilitation and treatment, particularly for those affected by heroin and opioid abuse. The new plan adds millions of dollars to treatment budgets for inpatient rehab beds, prevention efforts, and enforcement of drug laws throughout New York.
