Law enforcement officials say heroin use is rising in this area because the drug is cheap and readily available. I’m reporting on this issue for our next installment in the 180 Degrees project. Has heroin affected your life? E-mail me at jemerson@rrstar.com or comment here.

Heroin has affected my life a great deal… My little sister started using Heroin about 5 yrs ago and is still using… It has really put a huge heartbreak on our family… I have tried and tried to get my sister help through Rosecrance and have applied several times to interventiontv in hopes she would be chosen. My little sister once had a nice home, beautiful children, stay at home mom, she was beautiful and smart and loving and now she lives homeless in the area of Estate and 7th street on back as far as broadway over to the westside.. I have another sister that is being consumed by crack cocaine and a brother with alcohol and drugs… So these drugs have affected me and family a great deal and weighs on my heart everyday.
