PARENTS, KIDS AND DRUGS

In the past, parents of young people who use substances have had difficulty accessing support services.   The alcohol and drug treatment system is largely geared towards the needs of the person using the substance, but we know that parents of young people who are having alcohol and other drug problems experience significant distress.  The University of Queensland in conjunction with the Prince Charles Hospital are conducting research in order to improve our responses to parents of young people experiencing problematic substance use.  The researchers have developed a short online survey, which takes around ten minutes.
