Two years ago, Montana launched its Meth Project, an awareness campaign that used graphic images to show the dangers of methamphetamine use. Today, the project appears to be working.

"Teen meth use is reportedly down nearly 45 percent. The number of employees testing positive for meth has dropped nearly 72 percent. In 2005, when the Montana Meth Project began, there were over 1,200 meth-related offenses reported by the state Board of Crime Control. In 2007, just 473."

Montana has launched phase four of its Meth Project, and expects continued success. Source: KFBB.com.
