How Many Drug/alcohol Interventions Are Conducted Per Year? How Successful Are Interventions?

Question by sarw: How many drug/alcohol interventions are conducted per year? How successful are interventions?

Best answer:

Answer by E&D, Trick!
There is honestly no correct answer for this.

Many people keep their information about drug and alcohol abuse extremely private, so the information is not readily available. And many rehabilitation clinics (where people are sent after their interventions are conducted) do not publish any type of “results” in respect to the doctor-patient privacy acts that are in place.

Check A&E’s website, and look for the show “Intervention.” It deals with the interventions of drug and alcohol abusers. The site page should have links that will take you to resources about how to conduct an intervention and information about different clinics.

That’s about all the information you’re going to get…sorry!
