Drug Abuse And Prevention In Ozaukee County

Ozaukee County neighbors Milwaukee County, which is known for heavy drinking and methamphetamine trafficking. With a much smaller population, Ozaukee does not share these most of these issues. Still, there were a few arrests in 2018 that revealed the drug threat in Ozaukee County.

A Saukville man was arrested in April for possession of 26.3 grams of cocaine 80 ecstasy pills. A few months later, in October, a man from Grafton was charged with homicide for driving his daughter to buy the heroin that killed her.

For some individuals that are convicted of simple drug possession, Ozaukee County offers an alternative to jail time. Through a nonprofit called Just Listen, these people are given a patch that monitors their drug use. If they violate the abstinence agreement, the court will know, and they will face the consequences.

Programs like Just Listen aim to prevent further drug-related crime by treating the person’s addiction rather than punishing them. Participants in the Just Listen program report that it is more than monitoring; it also provides support and encouragement that can change lives.
