About EDAP/EDAAT: DARGS

 

Drug and Alcohol Reference Groups (DARG) tackle drugs and alcohol problems that touch directly their locality and communities.

As part of Essex DAAT, they work:

- To prevent today's young people to become tomorrow's drugs users by doing lots of prevention not only in schools but also concentrating on vulnerable young people;

- To support the local police in reducing the availability of drugs.

- To work with Essex DAAT to support more people seeking help and getting into treatment programmes.

- To reduce drug related crime and its impact on their local communities.

Across Essex, there are 10 DARG's covering the 12 districts or borough councils:

- Basildon

- Braintree

- Brentwood

- Castle Point and Rochford

- Chelmsford

- Colchester and Tendring

- Epping Forest

- Harlow

- Maldon

- Uttlesford
