Franklin County Juvenile Detention Center for Methamphetamine Pilot Program

In response to a growing concern about methamphetamine abuse, in 2006 the state of Illinois provided funds to create a model intervention for youth based at the Franklin County Juvenile Detention Center in Benton, a rural district in south-central Illinois. The Franklin County Juvenile Methamphetamine Treatment Program provides treatment services to youth from 41 counties across central and southern Illinois.
