Whittier, California - Drug Testing
Substance Abuse Trends and Statistics for Los Angeles County
The city of Whittier, and Los Angeles County as a whole, has seen an increase in drug overdose deaths in recent years. In 2021, the bulk of overdose deaths in LA county was caused by the use of methamphetamine and fentanyl, accounting for 56% and 55%, respectively. Sadly, the number of accidental overdose deaths due to fentanyl use has increased by 1,280% from 2016 to 2021. Between 2016 and 2020, fentanyl-related emergency department visits and hospitalizations also increased by 308% and 98%, respectively.
Notable Events Related to Drug Use in Whittier
Fentanyl is a deadly drug that has impacted residents throughout Los Angeles County. As part of an ongoing narcotics investigation, in September 2022, Pasadena police seized 328,000 fentanyl pills and four pounds of cocaine from suspected drug dealers. This bust brought the police department's total fentanyl pill seizures for the year to 708,500. Around the same time, police in Whittier seized eight pounds of fentanyl-laced pills during a traffic stop.
The rise of candy-colored fentanyl pills, which police say are being used by drug cartels to attract children and younger adults, has led to repeated warnings for parents to educate their kids about the dangers of the drug, reminding them that "one pill can kill."
Local Initiatives to Curb Substance Abuse in Whittier, CA
Whittier residents who are convicted of certain drug-related crimes may get a second chance, thanks to Los Angeles County's Drug Court Program. This program promotes sobriety by offering a collaborative environment that helps individuals with substance abuse disorders end their drug use. It also helps to keep non-violent criminals out of already overcrowded jails and prisons and reduces taxpayer costs associated with incarceration.
The Los Angeles County program runs for six to nine months and involves court-supervised rehabilitation and comprehensive treatment. This may include group counseling, education, vocational training, and job placement. Individuals who successfully complete the program can have their criminal charges dismissed.
