Romanians struggling with drug addiction are seeking treatment abroad, particularly in Italy, where facilities like San Patrignano offer free rehabilitation. This community provides a structured environment for recovery, allowing individuals to stay for up to three years. Many have found success here, unlike in Romania, where treatment options are limited and often costly. The model has inspired similar initiatives in other countries, but Romania lacks sufficient resources and support for such programs. Authorities acknowledge the need for change but face challenges in implementing effective solutions.
