Substance misuse

Substance misuse is an issue that can seriously affect communities, harm families and waste lives.

Kent Drug and Alcohol Action Team (Kent DAAT) is a partnership of a number of agencies across Kent working to reduce the harm caused by substance misuse.

The partnership includes representatives from Kent County Council, the NHS, Kent Police, Kent Probation and local prison services.

Kent DAAT works to commission effective drug and alcohol treatment services for Kent residents, both in the community and within Kent and Medway prisons.
