Like many Mainers, you probably know people, maybe a sister, a grandparent, a neighbor, who have struggled to free themselves from addiction.
In fact, nearly 1 in 10 Maine residents over age 12 use illicit drugs each month. A significant number of these Mainers abuse prescription medications. Tragically, from 2008-2012 an average of 92% of drug abuse overdose deaths were caused by prescription medications.
