The city is located in New Jersey Essex County and has a population of 64,270, making it the 20th largest city in the state. East Orange is just three miles northwest of Newark, New Jersey and 22 miles west of New York City.
While drug abuse is rampant in East Orange, admissions to drug and alcohol addiction treatment facilities is fairly low compared to other Essex County cities. This may be due to the fact that many of the citizens of East Orange who have addiction problems do not seek help. Drug-related crimes are high in the city, showing that despite lower admissions to treatment facilities, drugs and alcohol are, indeed, an issue for East Orange.
According to the Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services in the New Jersey Department of Human Services, the biggest drug issues are, like in all other New Jersey cities, heroin, marijuana, and alcohol. Admissions to addiction treatment in East Orange consistently accounts for about 8% of Essex County’s total, with nearly 45% of admissions being for the abuse of opioid drugs, 31% for the abuse of marijuana, 18% for alcohol abuse, and the remainder for other drugs.
Fortunately, there are numerous treatment, prevention, education, and recovery programs within New Jersey to help East Orange residents conquer their addictions. Serenity At Summit offers detox programs, outpatient programs, and inpatient drug treatment programs in the state of New Jersey. Attending a holistic rehabilitation program is the most effective way to deal with addiction and underlying psychological or psychiatric issues that may be present.
