While many drug rehab statistics are nebulous, Narconon boasts a 76% success rate, based on a two year follow-up. A key to our success is the Narconon New Life Detoxification program. Through the use of a sauna, we provide body detoxification that can help eliminate or reduce cravings. Research has shown that, detoxification from drugs or alcohol should be followed by effective treatment to achieve long-term success. We provide that effective treatment. Our non-12 step approach provides life skills necessary to maintain sobriety and lead a successful life. These life skills will help the addict identify and resolve problems through learned techniques, rather than turn to drugs as they have in the past. For more information on how the Narconon program can help you or a loved one, go to www.drugsno.com or www.alternativesentence.com or call 877-413-3073.

This is great news – not only is the state of New York apparently pushing drug treatment instead of incarceration for those who are drug abusers, there are some real stats to show they are going to save money and lives.
From the article – "Every $1 invested in addiction treatment programs yields a return of between $4 and $7 in reduced drug-related crime, criminal justice costs, and theft alone.
• Treatment Costs Less: $30,000 a year spent on residential treatment versus $40,000 a year for incarceration."
Well done to New York!
NARCONON drug rehab for those who abuse cocaine, methamphetamine, heroin, prescription drugs or any drugs of abuse.

Governor Commended for Making Rockefeller Drug Law Reforms Real, Saving Lives Through Treatment
"ALBANY, NY (10/07/2009)(readMedia)-- State Office of Alcoholism and Substance Services (OASAS) Commissioner Karen M. Carpenter-Palumbo today commended the Governor on his leadership in making the Rockefeller Drug Law Reforms real - saving lives through treatment.
"Thanks to Governor Paterson's vision and staunch leadership, we are celebrating a historic day for the addiction field and all New Yorkers," said Commissioner Carpenter-Palumbo. "Today, the draconian and failed policies of the Rockefeller Drug Laws are replaced with real reforms that will lead to real recovery for thousands of individuals struggling with alcohol and drug addiction - saving lives."
For 35 years, New York placed a high concentration of drug users in prison under Rockefeller Drug Laws where drug possession resulted in lengthy prison terms. These misguided laws resulted in prison overcrowding, high costs to taxpayers and individuals being placed back in society who endlessly cycle back into the prison system, often referred to as the "revolving door" of addiction and crime."
