Improving health & social outcomes
The Drug and Alcohol Program provides Commonwealth funding for drug and alcohol related activities and aims to achieve improved health and social outcomes for individuals, families, and communities at risk of, or currently affected by, substance misuse in Australia.
Country SA PHN commissions a diverse range of Alcohol and Other Drug (AOD) treatment services and activities across regional, rural and remote South Australia.
Providing support for those at risk of substance misuse
Country SA PHN Alcohol and Other Drugs program is comprised of two funding streams
The NIAS was established in 2015 in response to increased rates of Ice use and drug related harm.
The initiative aims to reduce the prevalence of use in addition to providing early intervention and treatment options and further access to AOD services.
NGOTGP was established in 1997 as a result of the Australian Government’s commitment to improving options for those seeking treatment for their substance abuse.
The funding aims to strengthen the capacity of non-government drug and alcohol organisations to achieve improved service outcomes and to increase the prevalence of treatment opportunities.
