Wyoming Addiction Hotline
The most current data published by SAMHSA (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration) paints a dark picture of addiction in the United States. In 2019, just 20 million U.S. over-18s met the diagnostic criteria for drug addiction or alcoholism. In 2022, 49 million people were addicted to illicit drugs, alcohol, or prescription medications. Among these, only around 10 million managed to engage with treatment, 1 million of these because they were unable to access treatment.
Substance abuse hotlines are one way to close this disturbing treatment gap by connecting those who need treatment with addiction specialists and treatment providers throughout the state of Wyoming.
