Substance Abuse In Hurley And Iron County

The rates of opioid overdose deaths have been steadily increasing in Wisconsin for the last two decades. The most significant rise between two years was from 2015 to 2016. This jump is mainly due to synthetic opioids like fentanyl.

Wisconsin is also known for its prevalence of heavy drinking and methamphetamine. Hurley and Iron County are fortunate to have few of these issues. Iron County has low percentages of opioid overdose deaths and hospitalizations as well as methamphetamine presence. However, the county has a startlingly high rate of neonatal drug addiction.

Traveling For Treatment

  • Leaving behind a familiar environment that may trigger substance abuse
