$10 Million Awarded to Fight Methamphetamine in Rural America

$10 Million Awarded to Fight Methamphetamine in Rural America: "The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) today announced the award of seven grants, totaling nearly $10 million over three years, to provide treatment for methamphetamine abuse and other emerging drugs for adults residing in rural communities. These new grants, and 17 previously awarded through this program in 2004 and 2005, support substance abuse treatment in areas among the hardest hit by methamphetamine abuse over the past decade, enabling rural communities to provide more comprehensive, integrated care for adults using methamphetamines or other emerging drugs of abuse."
