Description

The Mission’s Alcohol & Drug Community Workers support clients preparing for admission to 6 Elm street and provide ongoing support after they leave. They assist clients, partners, family and friends through all phases of recovery – and help identify ways of reducing the stress that accompanies major changes in behaviour and new living situations.
