Essex Young People's Drug and Alcohol Service
We support young people affected by drug and alcohol addiction. If you are below 25 and you are affected by substance misuse, we want to help. Whether it is you or someone in your family that is addicted to drugs or alcohol, we are here to support you every step of the way. It is possible for you to get drug free and stay that way. Our service is free and confidential.
Our free and confidential service includes: One-to-one support; Group work support; Telephone support; Drug rehabilitation requirement (DRR) interventions; Virtual support; NEET Support (for those not in education, employment or training). We provide personalised assessments, care and recovery planning, a range of counselling techniques and support for parents and families. We also offer access to positive activities, such as art and gym groups, structured recovery programmes and targeted group work programmes.
Who can use this service?
Essex residents aged below 25 years of age.
How are services delivered?
Services are delivered in a range of settings, including home visits, or by a mobile team who will also see young people in their locality in a community setting suitable for and agreed with the young person.
