Dr Edward McAllister, director of Lakeside Drug Rehabilitation Center, told Bennington County Human Resources Council that alcohol, speed and LSD are the major drugs affecting Vermont. He said heroin is less prevalent here, while marijuana is less harmful than alcohol or tobacco and may aid some in treating drinking problems. He outlined three drug-use levels and four major drug categories, noting 500 or fewer heroin addicts in the state and predicting marijuana legalization for personal possession in the future.
