How does the service work with young people and their parents?
In this video, Kacey, a member of the team addresses some of the concerns parents may have about discussing drugs and alcohol with young people. They explain why providing age-appropriate information about risks can help young people make safer choices and understand the potential impact of substance use.
The team works collaboratively with parents and other professionals, taking parents’ views and boundaries into account while ensuring that support is appropriate for each young person.
The focus is on early intervention and safeguarding — providing support before substance use develops into more serious problems and helping young people stay safe.
