The rate of car accident deaths caused by a driver under the influence of marijuana has increased in Los Angeles County by 620% between 2003 and 2014, according to the County of Los Angeles Public Health. Similarly, rates of admission to the ER due to use of marijuana in LA County have jumped up 602% between 2006 and 2015.1
Despite the fact that California has legalized marijuana for recreational use, it is clear that some of the dangers associated with the drug are a legitimate threat. Marijuana is not harmless, as many people believe. In fact, levels of THC, the active ingredient in marijuana, have increased over the years, paralleling the increase in ER visits, deaths on the road, and rates of marijuana addiction.
For families in Lynwood, California, the threat of marijuana is serious. For those who are in their teens and those who use the drug every day, the risk of addiction is highest, but about 1 in 9 people who experiment with the drug will ultimately develop an addiction.1 Anyone who uses the drug and gets behind the wheel is not only putting their own safety at risk but the safety of others in the car and on the road as well.
Because marijuana is an addictive substance, families who are in crisis can turn to comprehensive and research-based addiction treatment programs just as they would for any substance of choice. Call now to speak with a treatment advisor about your options for rehab and recovery.

I love this rehab so much. I usually hate going to rehab. They allow you to bring your dog or cat which was huge for me. They give you freedom. They have a personal chef. They are the best. Ruben is the best. Mandy is the best. Everybody is so nice and accompanying. They take us on outings. I have left every rehab I ever went to because I couldn't stand being treated less than a person. They treat you like a human being here. Come here if you wanna get sober.
Beit T Shuvah gave me a second chance at life and I recommend them to anyone with a billon stars! I had a wonderful treatment team that was saving my life and teaching me all different kinds of tools for recovery, spiritually, emotionally, physically, relationally, and mentally. Can’t say enough about the Medical team. Some of the groups I really enjoyed were anger management group, Elenas Inner Child group , Marcus Trauma group, Harriets Relationship Group, and Saks Life Skills Group in EC. Most importantly it’s the front liners, the PFs whom were always there for me , I have so much gratitude for them. They were always there for a shoulder to cry on, or when I needed to vent or just random advice. I could always count on them. When I read a review for TX I want to know what people likes so much about the program, I hope if your reading my review I gave you a little insight about Why I loved BTS so much,. BTS is about community, spirituality, friendship and recovery. Come see for yourself!!

Some may wish to know if spiritual counseling is part of the program as well.
Substance Abuse Among HispanicsRates of addiction and alcoholism among Latinos are similar to those found among other groups. However, according to several studies, Hispanic women who are less assimilated into US mainstream culture are less likely to have substance abuse problems. There are several hypotheses as to why this is (culture may play a part), but no clear consensus.
