The Charleston Daily Mail says in an editorial published Thursday that drug abuse "has blighted families, neighborhoods and communities all over West Virginia."
Citing a study released by the WV Partnership to Promote Community Well-Being last week, the editorial says that every area of West Virginia has been affected: Criminal justice, schools, health care, work force and the state's overall economy.
The partnership has said that "urgent attention" is needed to prevent drug and alcohol abuse.
"It makes its case," the paper said.
