6 INTRODUCTION In the mid 199s, the California Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs, in collaboration with the Center for Applied Research Solutions (CARS), Inc. began to work toward improving the state s prevention information system. A key component of this information system was the continuous collection, monitoring and reporting of selected community level indicators that would serve as direct and indirect measures of alcohol and other drug use prevalence and related problems. This information system was designed to assist with state and local prevention planning and policy making by providing useful, systematic data about prevention and treatment needs and outcomes throughout the state. The present report is the most recent product of this ongoing effort. It differs from earlier versions in a few important ways. First, while previous reports typically summarized data for more than twenty five indicators of health and social conditions that are theoretically linked to problem substance use, the current version is more streamlined, focusing on seven key indicators of AOD use and abuse prevalence and their direct consequences, including impacts on the criminal justice, health and alcohol and drug treatment systems. Second, the 21 report updates information contained in earlier versions, but expands in its depth to summarize data for populations within the larger county, including age, gender, and race/ethnicity subgroups. This expanded detail allows for more precise analyses of alcohol and drug use problems within a county population and enhances the ability to effectively target prevention and intervention strategies to community needs. Similar to previous reports, the 21 version includes simple analytic tools to help users interpret the information presented. This includes use of population based rates (e.g., the number of incidents relative to the total population) to make meaningful comparisons between geographic areas that differ in population size, or comparisons between differing time points. Data is presented at both the county and state level to allow county rates to be evaluated against a relative average. The overall intent of the report is to provide a simple, easy to use resource that helps synthesize the most relevant indicator data currently available to assess substance use problems, in an effort to optimize prevention planning and outcome measurement efforts in communities through the state. Specifically, it is designed to support the work of planners, policy makers, and practitioners in the field in: Determining the incidence of alcohol and other drug use problems within county populations and subpopulations; Monitoring trends in problem incidence to identify emergent issues and detect changes in status over time; Establishing program resource levels that are appropriate to address the nature and extent of prevention and treatment needs; and, Documenting progress toward achieving targeted prevention objectives and outcomes. The report contains information on several key indicators of alcohol and drug prevalence and consequences for California populations in each of the following seven indicators: 1. Household prevalence of past year binge drinking; 2. Admissions to publicly funded and/or monitored alcohol and other drug treatment facilities; 3. Arrests for drug related criminal offenses; 4. Arrests for alcohol related criminal offenses; 5. Motor vehicle accidents involving drivers who had been drinking; 6. Hospitalizations for alcohol and drug related conditions; and, 7. Mortality attributable to acute and chronic alcohol and drug use. Indicators of Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Introduction, California 1

7 Each report contains data compiled from several sources, including a statewide, longitudinal survey of California household populations, and state data systems housing public archival records from six central agencies, including the California Department of Justice (DOJ), the California Highway Patrol (CHP), the California Department of Public Health, Vital Statistics Section, the Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development (OSHPD), the Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs (ADP), and the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). This reliance on statewide data sources ensures that the information reported is drawn from reliable and valid measures that are routinely and uniformly collected across jurisdictions (i.e., all counties use the same data collection), allowing for comparisons over time, across counties, and between counties and the state. Indicators of Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Introduction, California 2

8 KEY FINDINGS Indicator 1: Prevalence of Past Year Binge Drinking Approximately 37 percent of residents age 18 and older participated in binge drinking in 27 compared to the statewide rate of 3 percent. Males participated in binge drinking much more frequently than females (5 percent versus 26 percent) in 27. Indicator 2: Admissions to Alcohol and Other Drug Treatment Overall, admission rates to treatment facilities in have increased since 2. In 2 there were about 51 admissions per 1, compared to 1,16 admissions per 1, in 28. s AOD admission rate was higher than the state overall starting in 22. There may be differences in detoxification and non detoxification service admission trends that affect this overall trend (see Treatment Data Clarifications section on page 9 for detail). Admissions due to methamphetamine use accounted for 41 percent of all admissions in 28. Admissions due to alcohol use accounted for roughly 14 percent of admissions, marijuana for 23 percent of admissions, heroin for 14 percent of admissions, and crack/cocaine for 4 percent in 28. Admission rates were highest among Blacks and American Indians, 2,67 and 2,97 per 1, in 28, respectively. These rates were significantly higher than each other race/ethnicity group each year. The highest rate of admissions was for 35 to 44 year olds with a rate of 1,891 per 1, in 28. The next highest rate was for 25 to 34 year olds with a rate of 1,879 per 1,. Indicator 3: Arrests for Drug Related Crime Crime rates for felony and misdemeanor drug offenses decreased from 1,886 per 1, in 2 to 1,478 per 1, in 28. s drug arrest rate was higher than the state each year. Arrests due to dangerous drug offenses accounted for approximately 26 percent in 28, narcotics for roughly 7 percent of drug arrests, marijuana for 11 percent of drug arrests, and 57 percent of drug arrests in 28 were for other drug violations. Drug arrest rates were highest among Blacks at 4,273 per 1, in 28. These rates were significantly higher than each other race/ethnicity group each year. The highest rate of arrests for drug related crime was for 25 to 34 year olds with a rate of 2,295 per 1, in 28. The next highest rate was for 18 to 24 year olds with a rate of 2,28 per 1,. 35 to 44 year olds also had a high drug arrest rate at 2,27 per 1, in 28.

9 Indicator 4: Arrests for Alcohol Related Crime Crime rates for felony and misdemeanor alcohol offenses decreased from 2,239 per 1, in 2 to 1,926 per 1, in 28. s alcohol arrest rate was higher than the state overall each year. Arrests due to driving under the influence accounted for approximately 67 percent in 28, public drunkenness for roughly 31 percent of alcohol arrests, and 2 percent of alcohol arrests in 28 were for liquor law violations. Alcohol arrest rates were highest among Blacks and Hispanics, 3,24 and 2,516 per 1, in 28, respectively. These rates were significantly higher than each other race/ethnicity group each year. The highest rate of arrests for alcohol related crime was for 18 to 24 year olds with a rate of 3,469 per 1, in 28. The next highest rate was for 25 to 34 year olds with a rate of 3,153 per 1,. Indicator 5: Alcohol Involved Motor Vehicle Accidents The rate of fatalities in alcohol involved accidents was higher in than the state overall each year. Males accounted for more than three fourths of total parties who had been drinking in alcoholinvolved accidents in 28. During this year Blacks had the rate of 283 per 1,, Hispanics had 159 per 1, and Whites had 81 per 1,. 18 to 24 year olds (337 per 1,) accounted for the highest rate of parties who had been drinking in alcohol involved accidents in 28. The next highest rate was for 25 to 34 year olds with a rate of 247 per 1,. Indicator 6: Hospitalizations Due to Alcohol and Drug Use The rate of hospitalizations due to alcohol and drug use decreased from 12 per 1, in 2 to 81 per 1, in 27. s AOD hospitalization rate was lower than the state overall each year. The rate of hospitalizations due to alcohol related causes decreased from 6 per 1, in 2 to 31 per 1, in 27. s alcohol related hospitalization rate was lower than the state overall each year. The rate of hospitalizations due to drug related causes decreased from 6 per 1, in 2 to 5 per 1, in 27. s drug related hospitalization rate was lower than the state overall each year. Indicator 7: Deaths Due to Alcohol and Drug Use The death rate due to alcohol and drug use decreased slightly between 2 and 27 from deaths per 1, to deaths per 1,. s AOD mortality rate was slightly lower than the state overall each year, except in 24 and 26. The death rate due to alcohol use increased slightly between 2 and 27 from 5.95 per 1, to 7.33 per 1,, lower than the statewide rates each year. The death rate due to drug use decreased between 2 and 27 from 9.73 per 1, to 6.41 per 1,, similar to the statewide rates each year.

14 Indicator 2: Admissions to Alcohol and Other Drug Treatment The number of admissions to publicly funded alcohol and other drug treatment facilities in California and rate of admission per 1, total population. Treatment Data Clarifications Findings for Indicator 2: Admissions to Alcohol and Other Drug Treatment are based on total admissions rather than unique client counts. Clients with multiple treatment admissions during the year tend to bias the demographic and service characteristics described. These findings include admissions for both detoxification and other treatment services. Detoxification services are short term, often repeated numerous times, and used primarily for alcohol or heroin treatment. The inclusion of admissions to detoxification services biases the demographic and service characteristics described. The Substance Abuse Crime Prevention Act (SACPA) was implemented in July 21. Clients referred by the criminal justice system compete for limited treatment services resources and are often given priority over clients referred by other sources. In 2, criminal justice referrals made up only 26 percent of all admissions. By 24, criminal justice referrals made up 42% of the admissions. The influx of these clients with their specific demographic and service characteristics impact the makeup of the treatment population described in the key findings. For instance, clients referred by the criminal justice system rarely use detoxification services, and more often have a primary drug other than alcohol. Also, SACPA referred clients do not frequently use narcotic replacement treatment for heroin/opiate abuse. Consequently, the number of admissions to detoxification services has decreased as well as the number of admissions with alcohol or heroin as their primary drug problem compared with pre SACPA levels.
