This report is a historical look at the NDTMS data for young people during 2008-09.

A review of alcohol services for offenders in the North East region
A review of current provision for alcohol users within the criminal justice system in the North East region was commissioned by the Health and Social Care in Criminal Justice (NE) as part of a wider piece of regional work that explores the alcohol offender pathways within the North East region. The aim of the review was to map and explore the provision that is currently in place for offenders within the 12 localities. The mapping exercise also explored the pathways and partnership working between agencies, which are a key aspect of delivering a seamless journey for the offender and delivering a continuum of care. This report provides a ‘snapshot’ of the work currently being undertaken within the region and also provides an overview of some of the work that is currently in development. The overarching aims of the review included developing an understanding of the key strengths of the provision available and its situation within the overall care pathway. In addition consideration was given to those areas of weaknesses, which if strengthened would improve the outcomes for service users.
