Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Local Drug and Alcohol Task Forces: Discussion
9:30 am
Ms Siobhán McArdle:
Part of the DRIVE programme will be to provide training for all the staff who work in the more than 400 publicly-funded drugs services. Approximately 130 of those services are particularly targeted at family supports. Part of the awareness campaign will be to provide a signpost for people to those services. The staff they meet will understand how to manage and support families who are struggling with drug-related intimidation and how to have those links with An Garda Síochána.
