The SICDATF, established in 1997 in the Dublin South Inner City as a response to the high levels of substance misuse, commissioned this research to explore the needs of young people in the area. 

This research was determined by the following questions:

  • What is the current policy stipulating?
  • What is the current model of practice?
  • Which services are currently engaging with young people problematically using alcohol and drugs?
  • Are there barriers preventing young people from engaging with services?
  • What is needed to address the gaps in service provision?
  • What upskilling and training are needed by youth workers to respond to the needs of young people? 

The specific objectives were to document:

  • Relevant data and policy (Chapter 2)
  • Examine the current model of practice and examples of best practice (Chapter 3)
  • Consult with young people (Chapter 4)
  • Consult with youth workers (Chapter 5)
  • Consult with those working with children, young people, and their families (Chapter 6)
  • Outline the conclusions and recommendations arising from this research (Chapter 7)
