Hi Sarah

I have a few (quite old) refs from some work I did on social work
intervention with drug using families, so the perspectives are very much
towards child protection etc. They may be useless for what you want so
feel free to disregard!

Dear All

I have been unable to find any research examining partnership working
between social work/services and substance use services.  Does anyone
know of anything?

In-house or informal studies (grey literature) also of interest.

Cheers
