 Oregon Speaks: Community Addiction Services Investment Strategy
The report reflects the results of focus groups held statewide in the
fall of 2007 to assess community stakeholders priorities related to
addiction prevention, treatment, and recovery services. The researchers
also present data from the State Epidemiological Outcomes Workgroup.
About 258,000 Oregonians are estimated to have substance abuse or
dependence problems, but only about 60,000 people, 25% of the total
estimate, use publicly funded treatment programs each year. The greatest
amount of unmet need was among individuals under the age of 26.
