Work Will Start on LC Detox This Monday

On Monday, May 14th, at 11:00 AM, Lehigh County Executive Don Cunningham will hold an official groundbreaking news conference for the Lehigh County Detoxification Center for inpatient treatment of drug and alcohol addiction issues.

After more than a decade of work to find a location for a county-owned site in Lehigh County, construction is finally ready to begin for the provider-run facility that will accommodate 31 residential clients for detoxification and rehabilitation.

The facility is located next to the Lehigh County Community Corrections Facility on River Road in Salisbury Township.

I'm all for helping out those in need of treatment but does the local government need to be the ones to fill the void?

They have to do it. It's ordered by the state. Welfare and public health and addiction issues go through the counties.

Place these people in work camps!

They won't have time to get HIGH!
