## Resource

New research from Orange County reveals a shocking twist: more addiction treatment centers don’t mean fewer overdoses—they’re linked to a 159% spike, especially among out-of-state visitors. The influx of non-locals, drawn by the sheer number of facilities, has created a dangerous environment where shady practices like fraud thrive. Similar patterns emerged in Florida, which responded with tough new laws—cutting overdoses and fraud. California, however, has stalled on regulation, vetoing key bills and blocking enforcement reforms, leaving the system vulnerable to exploitation. This isn’t just a local problem—it’s a nationwide warning: healing infrastructure is being weaponized, and urgent reform is needed to protect those seeking recovery.
