The Grand Rapids Solution

 

Grand Rapids city officials are particularly concerned about the rates of tobacco and alcohol abuse among young people. These two substances are known to be gateway drugs for harder substances. Additionally, knowing that around 7 in every 100 young people requires help, but so few get it, has given rise to a number of intervention projects. Grand Rapids has various detox and rehab facilities within its city limits, as well as beyond it. These include residential and outpatient facilities. At the same time, they also have a strong aftercare network in place, so that those who complete treatment can continue to be supported. The focus right now, therefore, is on letting people know about these facilities and understand how to refer themselves to them if they need the help.

 

Prevention is also an important element of the efforts Grand Rapids authorities have put in place. They want to ensure that all residents have healthy alternatives to choose from, and that they understand the dangers of substance abuse and addiction. They aim to achieve this through various community education and outreach programs.

 

Lastly, those who abuse substances and go against the law can be referred to the 61st District Court's Sobriety Court. Here, these people are given the opportunity to receive treatment rather than being required to go to jail. If they complete the program, which is very tough and highly intensive, their criminal case will be dismissed in court.
