  • “This report presents State estimates for 23 measures of substance use or mental health problems based on the 2005 and 2006 National Surveys on Drug Use and Health (NSDUHs). Sponsored by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), NSDUH is an ongoing survey of the civilian, noninstitutionalized population of the United States aged 12 years or older. Interview data from 136,110 persons were collected in 2005-2006. Separate estimates have been produced for four age groups: 12 to 17, 18 to 25, 26 or older,
    and all persons 12 or older. Also in this report are estimates for persons aged 12 to 20 for two of the measures—past month alcohol use and binge alcohol use.”
