Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander resources
In collaboration with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander service providers and other community organisations, the ADF has developed a suite of alcohol and other drug (AOD) resources to assist stakeholders working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.
This initiative has been funded by the Victorian Health Department as part of the Information Services Program.
Resources include information on alcohol and drug treatment services, drug facts, health and wellbeing, and where to access support.
