Families, Drugs and Alcohol - Policy and Research since 1984

The past 30 years has seen a huge amount of change in the policy, practice and politics around both families and drug/alcohol (‘substance’) use. Laws, behaviours and public perceptions have all altered substantially. As part of Adfam’s 30th birthday celebrations this document tracks the policy focus on the families of drug and alcohol users since 1984 – the year Adfam was founded.
