More Criticism of the Cost of UK Jail Methadone Treatment.

More press coverage of criticism of the cost of UK jail methadone treatment. Once again, totally missing the underlying source of the problem: the continuing incarceration of so many drug users and the reality that drug dependence and its consequences do not end with incarceration or upon release.

Thanks for sharing. Let's hope more people can be aware of this problem and misunderstanding.

Methadone clinics are a necessary evil. You are right about when drug offenders are released from jail. Unless they get into treatment they usually go right back to using drugs and committing street crimes to fund their habits. Methadone clinics and drug and alcohol treatment facilities benefit society as a whole.

Hi,

We’d like to get the link to recoverynowtv.com removed from your site. It is in the comment section and Google is not in favor with these types of links.
