Abstract:
The ADAM program was established in order to identify the levels of drug use among arrestees, tracking changing drug-use patterns; provide data to help understand drug-crime interaction; and alert local law enforcement to trends and the availability of new drugs in their jurisdictions. This article focuses on data on the use of ecstasy derived from the ADAM monitoring program.Keywords: Arrestee Drug Abuse Monitoring (ADAM); Drug Abuse Warning Network (DAWN)
