environment that promotes sensible drinking and reduce the harm

achieved.

Drug & Alcohol Action Teams are
partnerships combining representatives from local authorities
(education, social services), housing, health, probation, the
prison service and the voluntary sector and are responsible for
delivering the drug strategy at a local level.
They do this by ensuring that the work of the local agencies is
brought together effectively and that cross-agency projects are
coordinated successfully.
DAATs take strategic decisions on expenditure and service delivery
within the four aims of the National Drugs Strategy; treatment,
young people, communities and reducing supply.
Their work involves:
Commissioning services, including
supporting structures
Monitoring and reporting on
performance
Communicating plans, activities and
