Crack Cocaine Trends In 1995


Crack cocaine addiction trends continue to dominate as the most serious drug of abuse in most areas of the country, especially in the Community Epidemiology Work Group (CEWG) cities. 

CEGW cities are composed of researchers from 20 selected metropolitan areas of the United States who meet semiannually to report on patterns and trends of drug abuse in their respective areas; emerging drugs of abuse; vulnerable populations and factors that may place people at risk of drug use and abuse.  Indicator data shows the epidemic of crack and cocaine addiction may be leveling off in many urban areas and rebounding in others.

Field reports from some areas, such as Atlanta, show increased usage of crack cocaine in rural areas. Most indicators suggest an aging population of users who increasingly are suffering from health related consequences. Involvement in cocaine use among youth appear to be limited largely to sales and distribution, often as part of gangs. Minneapolis/St. Paul may be a possibly emerging exception: some indicator data suggest growing numbers of new, younger crack cocaine users.

Narconon Arrowhead Drug and Alcohol Treatment Center Success Story
When I arrived here at Narconon Arrowhead, I had lost all hope in life and myself. I was defeated and living on the streets, smoking crack, being in an abusive relationship brought me so low I felt like I would just rather die. When I was first here at drug rehab I wouldn’t talk to anyone in fear they would hurt me or put me down. I never in a million years imagined I could feel so good. This drug rehab program has given me my life back. In here I have regained myself and my family. I have grown. I have self-esteem and confidence I never before had. I can produce and provide. I have been able to sit down and talk and help others as they have done for me. My body and mind are clean, as is the new life waiting for me out there. I have the ability to make the right decision and stay away from people who are not striving for the same goals. I am here on the earth for a specific reason and I have purpose - I never before believed that. My purpose to live and succeed and help others who will help me survive. I have found out who I really am and it feels good. I am an intelligent, beautiful, funny, talented, caring, honest, respectful, trustworthy, hard working woman, daughter and friend. I am drug-free for the first time in 17 years and wonder why I never realized how good it feels before now. I remember things. I have never laughed so much in my life and all of me and my emotions are genuine. I will never, ever forget what I have been given here at Narconon Arrowhead's drug rehab program. I am a success! I am alive! Thank you! M.R.
