Myths vs. Facts
|
|
FACT: Marijuana arrests and criminal justice treatment referrals are both at
an all-time high, and these people are in treatment to avoid harsher
legal penalties, even if they don’t think it’s necessary. Marijuana is
less addictive than alcohol – could you imagine being forced into
treatment because you got caught drinking a cocktail? What a waste of
limited treatment resources!
