9  Sec. 1-5. Legislative declaration. Substance use and
10  gambling disorders, as defined in this Act, constitute a
11  serious public health problem. The effects on public safety
12  and the criminal justice system cause serious social and
13  economic losses, as well as great human suffering. It is
14  imperative that a comprehensive and coordinated strategy be
15  developed under the leadership of a State agency. This
16  strategy should be implemented through the facilities of
17  federal and local government and community-based agencies
18  (which may be public or private, volunteer or professional).
19  Through local prevention, early intervention, treatment, and
20  other recovery support services, this strategy should empower
21  those struggling with these substance use disorders (and, when
22  appropriate, the families of those persons) to lead healthy
23  lives.
