Overview

The APY Lands substance misuse service provides a range of treatment programs for Anangu who live or come from the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) Lands who are experiencing problems caused by substance misuse. The service provides assessment and treatment for people who misuse petrol, alcohol, cannabis and other substances in the APY Lands. The program model is based on evidence of what has worked elsewhere in other drug and alcohol programs, particularly in Aboriginal populations.
