Why Are There So Many Drug Rehabs and Treatment Centers in Florida?

Question by adilene d: Why are there so many drug rehabs and treatment centers in Florida?
I’ve heard that these are even the best in the country. I was just wondering why, and why in Florida, of all the states.

Best answer:

Answer by destinee d
Florida is permeated with a lot of drug rehabs and drug treatment centers due to the fact that lots of types of drugs are present in that state. The common types of drugs that perpetuate Florida are: ecstasy, cocaine, heroin, and club drugs, among others. Because Florida possesses these drugs in alarming numbers, the government made it a point to build drug treatment centers that aim to be of help to the individuals who happen to be addicted.

What Is the Best Drug Rehab for Young Adults?

Question by Mary Williams: What is the best drug rehab for young adults?
I am trying to find the best treatment center in Arizona for my little brother. He is 21 and using heroin. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Best answer:

Answer by Bill Davis
There are many great treatment centers for drug and alcohol addiction. Depending on your brother’s circumstances he may need long term treatment. Addiction is a disease of the mind as well as the body. I would suggest that you explore a treatment facility that incorporates 12 step focused recovery as well as life skills and schooling. If you are looking for something specifically in Arizona I would suggest you explore Back2Basics in Flagstaff, AZ.
