RE: Step 2 Addiction Treatment Service and Family Support with the Southern Trust
The Step 2, Drug and Alcohol Service is a partnership that offers counselling and support to people aged 18+ with substance use issues. We also offer family support to loved ones impacted by substance use, whether or not the person using the substance is accessing treatment. The partnership is made up of 4 organisations ourselves (Inspire), Extern, Dunlewey and Ascert.
Attached is our leaflet and referral forms for more information. This service may be of interest to the organisations within the Wellbeing Action Partnership.
Referrals can be made by either telephone (028 9039 2547 or 07591 834 468) or by completing the attached referral form and sending directly to [email protected] referrals are then discussed and allocated at our weekly partnership meeting. We also accept self-referrals. Through the partnership support is offered both face to face and remotely.
Following the weekly partnership meeting, each partner will make contact with their referral allocation, discuss the referral and if clients are interested in engaging in support an initial assessment appointment will be scheduled. Following this clients can avail of up to a number of counselling sessions, relapse prevention or harm reduction support.
