Description

The service is designed to identify early identification of alcohol & drug use and the effects this has on our clients who are users.  The service will apply screening and risk assessment processes to identify potential risk for the tamariki/rangatahi.

We will work with tamariki/rangatahi and their whānau to identify the issues associated with the use of alcohol and drugs, in order to develop methods to assist the reduction of harm to the client and their whānau.
