In brief: The link between housing and drug treatment outcomes

In brief: The link between housing and drug treatment outcomesIn 2004 the Audit Commission pointed out an over-emphasis on treating drug addiction and a lack of emphasis on providing the support necessary to bring order to chaotic lives. The connection between drug misuse and homelessness is a strong one but despite this, agencies and commissioners who support homeless drug users often work in isolation from each other. The Clean Break project focused on how housing and drug treatment services can work together more effectively and makes recommendations for future improvements.
