Health & Saf. Code, § 11760.1
Text — As published in the Legislative Counsel's database, tables dated October 18, 2026 (pubinfo_2025.zip)
The Legislature recognizes that any efforts to address the problems related to inappropriate alcohol use and other drug use are greatly hindered by:
(a) The stigmatization of persons who have alcohol and other drug problems.
(b) Denial by the individual and the community, especially among members of the professional community, sometimes referred to as gatekeepers, regarding the nature and scope of alcohol and other drug problems.
(c) Services that, if uncoordinated, often are conflicting, inappropriate, ineffective, duplicative, and wasteful of limited public and private resources.
(d) Actions and attitudes that encourage consumption of alcoholic beverages in California, which consumption leads to alcohol problems.
(e) Actions and attitudes that encourage illicit drug use.
