Local services to meet local needs
Drug services should devolve to local level to a greater degree to tailor them better to local needs. Desired outcomes should be specified, with local authorities free to devise the administrative structures and processes to achieve these.
The Communities strand of the any new drug strategy must spell out what is meant by community and describes more clearly what successful community engagement or community resilience would look like.

The list might include support for the families of drug users, properly funded and well-run networks for involving service users, local businesses committed to schemes for helping drug users back into employment and social marketing campaigns aimed at particular local groups on issues of particular concern to the community.
