Instigated by SANDAS and funded by DASSA this project has delivered a document that describes the AOD treatment and service delivery sector in South Australia.
The framework document will be used to increase understanding of the AOD sector and treatment pathways within other areas that work with AOD clients for example justice, primary health and mental health. It will also be a useful tool for strategic planning and staff training within the AOD sector. Further it will provide a strong platform to inform projects on treatment outcomes measures.
A project reference group provided expert input for this project from Centacare, Community Access and Services SA (CASSA), Uniting Communities, Aboriginal Sobriety Group, Nunkuwarrin Yunti, Life Without Barriers, OARS Community Transitions, SANDAS, Drug and Alcohol Services SA (DASSA), the National Centre for Education and Training on Addiction (NCETA), and the Primary Health Networks.
Consultation for this project occurred via:
- A project reference group with industry representatives
- A convention in October 2017 to workshop shared aims and principles, and elements of treatment service delivery
- An online survey for organisations providing alcohol and other drug treatments
- Meetings with organisations in the sector
- A forum in early 2018 to review the draft document
