Changes at Next Step Drug and Alcohol Service and the latest National Drug Strategy Household Survey results feature in our March issue of FYI.
We also share a new resource from the Alcohol and Drug Foundation on how to improve health outcomes by reducing stigma, and a new Australian website that provides drug alerts.
As always, we share career and job opportunities, training and events and new resources.
WANADA’s monthly e-newsletter FYI is for anyone with an interest in alcohol and other drug issues in Western Australia. Feedback and submissions are welcome.
