BATTLING SUBSTANCE ABUSE

Oklahoma ranks among the highest in the nation when it comes to substance abuse. Part of the problem leading may be a lack of proper care for abuse disorders, and one agency aims to start offering more help to Oklahomans. OKC Metro Alliance is looking at launching two programs designed to help with substance abuse. One program will offer long term residential care for both men and women. Another is a program that is run with help from the OKC PD, where people who are publicly drunk are offered a safe place to stay until they sober up, without fear of incarceration. Both of these programs provide much needed benefits to the community, but do not necessarily reduce the number of drug and/or alcohol related crimes significantly. In that regard, if you have been charged with DUI or a drug crime, call us for help. Our goal is to help you with your legal matters, but also help you find programs that will provide any other help you need.
