Young People's Drug and Alcohol Team (YPDAAT)

 

St Helens Young People's Drug and Alcohol Team (YPDAAT), provide young people and their families in St Helens with a range of interventions to help them to make informed choices around drug and alcohol use in order to achieve their full potential.

Despite what you might think, most young people choose not to use drugs or alcohol. Of those that do most young people will grow out of this without any issues.

 

What to expect

• A friendly service
• An initial appointment where we introduce ourselves and tell you more about what the team offers
• The opportunity to ask any questions and tell us a bit more about what is going on for you
• Appointments with your key worker at suitable times and places for you
• Support for as long as you feel you want to receive it

 

Covid-19

Due to Covid 19 the team have changed the way we work, we are currently working from home but are still having regular contact with young poeple offering advice and support. We can offer a range of ways to work with you by phone, Facetime or at your home if you have a garden.  Hopefully by September we can offer you support in school or college, we will keep you updated on this.
