Project
M-PACT
Purpose
To provide all-round support for families affected by substance misuse
Funding
The cost of a licence to deliver M-PACT is £5,000 plus £750 a year to renew. Training costs £800 per person with organisations training at least four staff
Background
Substance misuse charity Action on Addiction provided treatment for adults and ran family programmes but did not have an approach that specifically addressed children's needs. The solution was to adapt an existing model - the internationally-recognised Strengthening Families programme - and the organisation secured charitable funding to develop and test a version for families affected by drug and alcohol problems. The result was M-PACT (Moving Parents And Children Together).
