SUBSTANCE USE IN MONTANA
2017 SUBSTANCE Use in MONTANA | 1 September 2017 A summary of state level initiatives for the Department of JusticeSUBSTANCE USE IN MONTANAE nforcement | Monitoring | Treatment | Prevention | drug Endangered 2 | SUBSTANCE use in MONTANA 2017 Dear Fellow MontanansOn April 19, 2017, my office launched Aid MONTANA : Addressing the Impact of Drugs, a comprehensive initiative to combat MONTANA s growing SUBSTANCE abuse epidemic. The multitude of efforts in our state to curb SUBSTANCE abuse clearly aren t enough to adequately address the problem. We need something different. To get the discussion going on how we can develop a statewide strategic plan on addiction, I commissioned this report , which is a high-level overview of all the many ways the State of MONTANA is working to address SUBSTANCE use within its borders. While many dollars have been directed over the years toward trying to stem the tide, the systems they fund are not always well coordinated.
As this report reflects, our situation is grim: The total number of drug offenses in Montana has increased 559% since 1980. Drug violations driven by methamphetamine use, which went down from 2005 to 2010, spiked again in 2015. That same year, 57% of all violations were for marijuana, followed by methamphetamine at 31% and other narcotics at 7%.
