Drug and Alcohol Abuse Treatment in Nebraska

Nebraska ranks fifth in the nation for methamphetamine production. Methamphetamines are responsible for roughly 93% of all drug-related prosecutions in the state. Alcohol abuse among residents is so common that a news article once referred to Nebraska as “America’s 9th drunkest state”.

Nebraskans have long been looking for a slice of Nebraska, so take a look around and get ready to be shocked. The state capital, Lincoln, has a college community, a hip and historic downtown, and a vibrant arts scene. Hike to giant mushrooms in the Toadstool Geological Park, named for its mushroom-shaped rock formations. Track lawless offenders on the Outlaw Scenic Byway, which passes through snorkeling rivers and sand dunes.

The Impact of Addiction in Nebraska

Drug and Alcohol Abuse Treatment in Nebraska

Nebraskans have long been looking for a slice of Nebraska, so take a look around and get ready to be shocked. The state capital, Lincoln, has a college community, a hip and historic downtown, and a vibrant arts scene. Hike to giant mushrooms in the Toadstool Geological Park, named for its mushroom-shaped rock formations. Track lawless offenders on the Outlaw Scenic Byway, which passes through snorkeling rivers and sand dunes.

Despite a total population of slightly less than 2 million residents, Nebraska ranks fifth in the nation for methamphetamine production–making it one of the most commonly abused illicit substances in the state. These drugs are responsible for roughly 93% of all drug-related prosecutions in Nebraska.

Clearly there are plenty of things to enjoy Nebraska, but that does not mean Nebraska is without drug and alcohol problems.

Another commonly abused substance in the state is alcohol. Alcohol abuse among residents is so common that a news article once referred to Nebraska as “America’s 9th drunkest state.” However, it is neither alcohol nor methamphetamines that cause overdoses. Although opioid abuse rates in Nebraska are not as high as those in other states, opioids are generally still involved in most overdoses. The state, similar to the rest of the nation, also struggles with other sorts of drug abuse such as marijuana and cocaine.

To help combat this abuse issue, the government set up several substance abuse treatment centers. Some of these funds were awarded by SAMHSA, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, to be used for evidence-based prevention and treatments in Nebraska.
