Beaverton, Oregon Drug and Alcohol Rehabs
Beaverton, Oregon, with a population of just around 98,900, lies in the picturesque Tualatin Valley, about 7 miles west of Portland, and has been able to retain the enticing feel and charm of a much smaller community. But this small, sleepy, foliage-surrounded city—which (charmingly) got its name from a nearby body of water with an abundance of beaver dams—is facing an almost insurmountable threat from drug abuse and drug trafficking.
Located in Washington County, unfortunately Beaverton suffers the effects of being located close enough to a major population center (Portland) where drugs are widely trafficked and used, and still far enough away to have the cover of a suburb, which can often fuel drug activity. In fact Washington County as a whole is a designated High-Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA) county. Authorities say that Methamphetamine is the most heavily trafficked substance moving through Beaverton, and by the numbers has surpassed even heroin as the most harmful.
So, what's the solution? Recognizing the need for greater cooperation among authorities, the Westside Interagency Narcotics ("WIN") Team was formed in 1993, intended to be an inter-agency task force made up of personnel from both the Beaverton and Hillsboro Police Departments, Washington County Sheriff's Office, National Guard Counter-Drug Program, and the FBI. The hope is that with greater communication and networking between authorities, they'll be able to respond to drug threats faster, and make larger seizures of illegal products moving through the region. If they can stop the influx of product, it's hoped that that will go a long way towards lowering the drug addiction numbers in Washington County. We can only hope that their efforts will be successful.
