Rehab News: Support available for Scottish drug recovery programme

A new National Support capacity is being set-up to help support local partners deliver the new Scottish Drugs Strategy which is focused on treatment and recovery. The Scottish Government will also set up a Drug Misuse Recovery Network to facilitate the shift in thinking needed by both service providers and service users.

The programme of action will be supported by a package of £94 million over the next three years. Health Boards will receive a 3.8 % increase in funding for drug treatment services. Funds are also spent on tackling drug use from other general budgets allocated by Government to local authorities.

The new strategy takes a broad approach to preventing problem drug use and recognises the strong evidential links between problem drug use and deprivation, negative early years experiences, mental health problems and poor educational attainment. The reform of Scotland's education system, through the Curriculum for Excellence, will help sharpen delivery of substance misuse education in our schools.

The Scottish Government has said it will continue to support the police to disrupt drug-dealing networks and the organised crime groups behind them. It wants to strengthen the powers Scotland already has to seize assets from criminals who are benefiting from unlawful conduct, including drug dealing, to make a lifetime of crime open to a lifetime of recovery. These funds will continue to be channelled back into communities to give young people choices and chances to avoid getting into drugs.

The strategy sets out a new approach to achieve better quality and more consistency of drug treatment across all prisons, including the pilot of a new model of integrated care at HMP Edinburgh. The Scottish Prison Service will publish a new Substance Misuse Strategy this autumn.
The Children Affected by Parental Substance Misuse (CAPSM) agenda, which is being launched as part of the wider drugs strategy, highlights a dedicated approach to supporting young people and families affected by these issues in Scotland for the first time. An action plan to improve support services for young people and families affected through better inter-agency working, risk management and training for professionals will be developed under CAPSM.
