Volume 4: Treatment - Untreated addiction
is a most serious health problem, contributing to or causing accidents,
injuries, and a wide array of illnesses. Untreated addiction also
contributes to increased crime, violence, abuse, and a host of
other social problems. Untreated addiction also causes a serious
financial drain on the nation’s economy. Conversely, the
cost savings which can be realized where appropriate treatment
is provided are equally substantial. With these and other concerns
in mind, this volume presents model legislation to fill gaps in
the continuum of care, eliminate problems in obtaining needed treatment,
and increase early intervention and treatment.
