A new direction [PDF]
Focusing on the interaction between AOD and the criminal justice system, this issue aims to improve policy and practice so all people who seek AOD treatment are able to access it. We hear from an array of NADA members who work with people from the justice system, alongside advice and wisdom from specialists.
