Most of us know someone with a drug or alcohol abuse problem. The numbers in Crittenden Co. show just how widespread the problem is here. Adults - each year approx. 95% of court cases in Crittenden Co. involve drugs or alcohol. Children - Over
the last 6 years the Coalition has surveyed the high school and middle
school with a KIP survey three times, which queries the students on drug
and alcohol use. In almost every category, substance abuse by Crittenden
Co. students is higher than the numbers for the region, state and nation.
