Santa Clarita, California, is home to approximately 151,088 people. It is found in Los Angeles County and it around 20 miles outside of Burbank and 16 miles outside of Simi Valley. During the 1990s, the city experienced a population growth of around 37%. Since then, the population has continued to grow, with rates around 2.4% per year. Unfortunately, Santa Clarita, CA, is also home to a significant drug and alcohol abuse. However, thanks to important efforts, these problems are being addressed. This is reflected in the fact that both violent and property crime levels in the city are lower than those in the rest of the state. It has achieved this in part through the NCADD (National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependency) of the San Fernando Valley.

 

The NCADD of San Fernando Valley

 

The NCADD is a nonprofit organization that was launched in the early 1970s. Since the start, their goal has been to ensure that individuals, their families, and the community as a whole are able to access preventative, educational, and treatment services in relation to the impact of alcoholism and drug addiction. The organization believes that every individual should be able to live a life free from dependency and/or addiction. Their focus is on the entire population, but they start with children and youths.

 

As a community service, the NCADD provides referrals, education, and prevention in terms of drug and alcohol addiction. People can work with them should they require detox and/or rehab, as well as access to sober living facilities and other forms of help. All of that are provided free of charge.

 

The organization has set itself the goal of creating a prevention and educational process that will stop the economic and social patterns that lead to substance abuse in the community. They promote healthy behavior and contribute to creating environments in which substance abuse is being eliminated.

 

The NCADD is also involved in a form of intervention, mainly through their Court Referral System. Anyone who is convicted of a DUI offense will be required to take part in the DUI Alcohol Program. Santa Clarita is home to one of the four referral offices of this service. All individuals who go through this system are monitored for their progress. The NCADD, meanwhile, maintains records of all those convicted through the DUI Court Referral, and ensures that they receive the treatment that they need. They also refer them to appropriate inpatient and outpatient referral systems, as well as continue to support them through aftercare procedures once they complete their rehab.

 

While Santa Clarita continues to have a significant problem with substance abuse, the efforts of the NCADD, together with the community as a whole, are having a huge positive impact. Over the past 37 years, they have been able to make a real difference to the lives on individuals, their loved ones, and the community as a whole. However, their work is far from over, and they will continue to address the issues that the community faces in terms of substance abuse.
