judgesmall1.jpg   The Narconon program often gives advice and help to persons facing Drug charges and possible incarceration. We understand that time in jail is seldom a solution to Addiction.

Rehabilitation is not accomplished under duress. We've seen them go in and seen them after they come out of lock-up. There is not often any gains to be had from the prison experience.

A person with addiction problems might be capable of learning how to simply resist the urges to use drugs through threat of punishment, but what kind of a life is that, to constantly be resisting the urge to use?

More is needed. Acutual recovery means rising above the urge to abuse drugs and being beyond the reach of the old compulsions and addictions.

This is much preferable to mere punishment and also more effective for long-term sobriety.

If you or a loved one is being sentenced for drug possession or use, call for an interview with our legal department.

Treatment is for more desirable and in many cases can be arranged as an alternative to a trip to prison.

Drug Any substance, other than food, that changes the function or structure of the body or mind when ingested. Drugs essentially are poisons. The degree they are taken determines the effect. A small amount acts as a stimulant. A greater amount acts as a sedative. A larger amount acts as a poison and can kill one dead. This is true of any drug. Each has a different amount at which it gives those results. 
Narconon A non-religious, non-profit drug rehabilitation program using technology developed by author L. Ron Hubbard. The Narconon program was originally organized in Arizona State Prison in 1966 by William Benitez, an inmate who was himself a drug addict. He applyed basic principles regarding self awareness and self assurance contained in books by L. Ron Hubbard and, by doing so, completely cured his own addiction to heroin. Mr Benitez then went on to help twenty other inmates do the same. Today there are Narconon centers in 45 countries.
