lies in its ability to stimulate economic growth throughout Lava Hot Springs
and the surrounding communities, supporting local businesses, tourism, and
regional vitality.

B. Community Needs Assessment
Completed by jfullmer@bannockcounty.gov on 12/17/2025 7:43 AM
Case Id: 30579
Name: Bannock County Sheriff's Office - 2025
Address: 5800 S. 5th Avenue , Pocatello , ID 83204
B. Community Needs Assessment
A community needs assessment identifies local prevention needs by analyzing data from various sources. This helps applicants
demonstrate their prioritized substance misuse issues, understand their impact, pinpoint contributing factors, assess readiness, and
determine necessary resources. Please provide the following information to help us understand the local substance use issues and
prevention needs in your community. Each of the four short narratives should be limited to 350 words (or 3000 characters). For
more information on Assessment in the SPF, click here. (20 Points Total)
B.1. Demographics
Provide a community profile, including demographics such as age, race, ethnicity, gender, socioeconomic status,
culture, religion, and sexual orientation. Describe what it is like to live and work in your community.
Bannock County, located in southeastern Idaho, has an estimated 2025 population of approximately 91,435 residents.
The community is predominantly White (81.1% to 84.3%), with a growing Hispanic or Latino population that currently
accounts for nearly 10% of residents. The median age is approximately 35 to 38 years, reflecting a relatively young
population influenced by the presence of Idaho State University in Pocatello. Economically, the county has a median
household income of roughly $64,080, while the poverty rate stands at approximately 12.2%. Educationally, the
county demonstrates a strong profile, with about 19.5% of adults holding a bachelor’s degree and approximately
10.7% having attained graduate or professional degrees.
B.2. Problems
Describe the nature of the substance misuse problem in your community. How do you know this is a problem?
Include quantitative data (e.g., school survey results, number of school incidents, juvenile arrest rates etc.)
In 2025, substance misuse remains a critical public health and safety concern in Bannock County, Idaho, where
fentanyl and methamphetamine are identified as the most significant drug threats. The county has one of the state's
highest rates of stimulant-related overdose deaths, with local reports from late 2025 indicating that synthetic opioids
now account for the majority of overdose fatalities in the area. Statewide, Idaho saw a record 12.25% increase in
toxicology cases in fiscal year 2025, the highest in a decade, with 90% of adult DUI toxicology samples testing positive
for at least one drug. In Bannock County specifically, the criminal justice system reflects these trends; roughly 80% of
local offenders struggle with alcohol or drug misuse, and 50% of jail inmates are clinically addicted. To combat these
rising rates, the county has expanded the reach of its Problem Solving Courts and installed opioid emergency kits in
public facilities such as the county jail and juvenile detention centers.
B.3. Causes
Describe the perceived causes of substance misuse problems in your community. Examples include: availability of
alcohol, lack of enforcement of underage drinking laws, lack of prevention education, poor parental controls, social
norms, etc.
In Bannock County, Idaho, alcohol misuse is driven by a combination of high accessibility and complex socioeconomic
factors common to rural and transition areas. This can include Self Medication and Mental Health, rural
socioeconomic stress, social and peer influence, and underage transitions. A significant portion of Idaho youth reports
obtaining alcohol from friends or family members, with over 50% stated drinking was occurring in private homes.
Enforcement of underage drinking is often difficult when alcohol is sourced through social networks rather than retail

5 of 25
outlets. Approximately 35% of Idaho youth get alcohol from friends and family members.
B.4. Current Efforts
Describe the current efforts to address the substance misuse problem in your community. Include efforts outside
your organization to provide a comprehensive view of strategies currently used.
The current efforts to address substance misuse in Bannock County focuses on a continuum of care that integrates
prevention, harm reduction, and recovery support. This all includes school and youth programming, specialty courts
for juveniles, and treatment access.

BOARD OF BANNOCK COUNTY COMMISSIONERS' - MEETING
DECEMBER 23, 2025

agrees that no federal funds provided under a grant award pursuant to this application will be used for lobbying
activities, including attempts to influence legislation, elections, or government officials, or to encourage grassroots
lobbying efforts. The Applicant further assures that any federal funds provided via a grant award pursuant to this
application will be used to supplement, and not supplant, funds from other federal, state, or local sources.
Supplanting occurs when a recipient uses federal grant funds to replace existing non-federal funds, thereby
reducing the recipient's financial commitment to a program or activity. Federal funds are intended to supplement
(add to) existing resources, not substitute for them. The Applicant will maintain accurate records to demonstrate
compliance and will promptly disclose any lobbying activities funded with non-federal funds as required by federal
law. Failure to comply with these requirements may result in termination of this agreement, repayment of funds,
or other penalties as prescribed by law.
THEREFORE, to be eligible for and as a condition of this grant award, I agree to the following:
The five assurances acknowledged above will be effective at the time a Grant Award Agreement is signed between the
Grantee and Office of Drug Policy, and will remain in effect for the grant term for which funding is being sought.
By typing my name in the indicated field below, I hereby certify that all of the information submitted in this
application is true, accurate and complete. I understand that transactions and/or signatures in records may not be
denied legal effect solely because they are conducted, executed, or prepared in electronic form, and that if a law
requires a record or signature to be in writing, an electronic record or signature satisfies that requirement.
