Maine Drug Related
Mortality
Patterns: 1997-2002
Principal Investigator: Marcella Sorg
Substance abuse has been documented as one of the most important
critical problems facing both state and local governments as well as the
communities they serve. The state's ability to generate responsive and
appropriate public policy with respect to Maine's substance addiction
problems depends on having valid and reliable data describing and
interpreting those problems in relationship to their morbidity and
mortality costs, as well as having the ongoing capacity to monitor these
patterns through state information systems.
