Committee on Drugs Use

A Health-Led Approach: Discussion (Resumed)

9:30 am

Ms Maeve Foley:

We see a lot of both issues, they go hand in hand. It is such a struggle for people and we understand that. Our resources are limited even within the community in terms of what is available to us. Having that dual diagnosis aspect, somebody might already be diagnosed but if he or she is not, it is a difficult space to work in and obviously an extra struggle for the participant as well.
