The Drugs Rehabilitation CE schemes have not experienced any reduction in funding in recent years. The significant contribution of resources from the Department of Social Protection to the drugs rehabilitation response includes the 1,000 dedicated CE places delivered through the CE Drug Rehabilitation Projects (DRP’s). The focus of the CE DRP places continues to be on training and development in support of recovery for those seeking a more stable lifestyle, including a path to progression to work. A CE Drugs Advisory Stakeholders Group, led by the Department and including statutory, community, voluntary and scheme representatives is working on a framework to further develop and enhance the CE drugs response.
