There is a wide body of existing research on the extreme and negative impact of DRI on individuals, families and communities. The focus of this research was on how DRI manifested, and what resources, systems and structures exist currently, or could be developed in the future to tackle DRI. The result is the development of a practical, data driven model that offers a national approach that ultimately seeks to reduce incidents of DRI, reduce the harm caused by DRI and create safer and healthier communities.
