Treatment and Rehabilitation

As the drug situation changes and evolves, it is increasingly acknowledged that treatment, as an integral component of prevention, must be sufficiently flexible and sensitive to match the needs of individuals with differing characteristics and in differing circumstances.

Treatment and Rehabilitation Centres must seek to adapt to the changing characteristics of the population whom they serve!
