SUBSTANCE MISUSE

Breaking the Cycle. A three year pilot project (October 2009)
The objectives of this project was to work with families in Cumbria, Derby and Tower Hamlets:

• to reduce their substance use
• improve their parenting skills
• help establish boundaries and structures within the home
• put children's needs first
• encourage adults to improve their economic situation

The overall findings showed that the approach that Breaking the Cycle took contributed to the empowerment, changes and improved the lives of the families who took part.
