Abstract
This thesis, although part of the requirement for an architectural degree, is not solely an architectural presentation. The project began with a real interest in the problem of drugs among youth which is currently perplexing adults throughout the United States. At the outset I reviewed as much historical information as was necessary to understand how we have come to the present period. Interestingly enough drugs are not as new of a phenomenon as many would try to make us believe. This presentation begins with a commentary, not only because my research has formed definite be! iefs on my part, but also because it is important in understanding just what a Drug Abuse Rehabilitation Facility should accomplish if it is to be acceptable, by both the youths it is to serve and the professionals who are to staff and maintain the facility. Past methods of rehabilitation are reviewed for their background information, a history of drug use and legislation is presented, and also the work of current agencies existing in St. Louis are shown.
