DENVER — The number of teens and kids struggling with substance use disorders has been rising steadily. The Denver Health emergency room sees 900 people under 21-years-old annually for substance-related issues. The medical center also said fentanyl-related issues are growing fastest in the 14 to 23-year-old age group.
The Adolescent Substance Use Treatment program is developmentally tailored for younger patients, keeping in mind things that may be important to patients like continuing their classroom education, getting fresh air in an open-air activity courtyard and garden, and social events.
