Drug intervention programs and UK drug interventions programme Explained.

What is drug intervention program? Before i got help for my problems,this was a question i asked myself many times.I wanted to know,but did not want to ask cos it was an admission that i was in trouble.At the same time i need help and had seen the term drug intervention programs many times.
Phew,those were the tough bad days.Anyway,in answer to that question,A drug intervention program is a structured, solution-oriented process undertaken to persuade someone who
has a problem with drugs or alcohol abuse to seek help in overcoming the addiction.

On the other hand,the UK drug interventions programme is  designed towards being a key part of the United Kingdom's strategy for tackling drug abuse. It aims to engage drug-misusing offenders involved in the Criminal Justice system in formal addiction treatment and other support, thereby reducing drug-related harm and reducing offending behaviour. Introduced in 2003, it formed a part of both of New Labour's '10 year' drug strategies. In their 2010 Drug Strategy, the Conservative / Liberal Democrat coalition state their continued intention to support DIP.
