Professional Development to Combat Youth Drug Addiction
01/05/2005 - 01/05/2007 (ongoing project)
Project goals
The objective of the action is to combat the culture of drug dependency amongst young drug addicts in Rostov-on-Don. This will be achieved through improved training and education for addiction workers and by making changes to the existing service. A Drugs Outreach facility will be introduced which will be a completely new development for Rostov City Administration. The objective is to encourage a proactive approach rather than waiting for addicts to come for help first. Finally, training seminars will share the results of the project with all the addiction workers throughout the Rostov Region. In Glasgow the trainees will take part in placements throughout a wide variety of addiction services. In conjunction with this practical experience they will study along with UK colleagues on an educational programme: Scottish Training on Drugs and Alcohol (STRADA) based at Glasgow University.
