"The Australian Government is taking a new, early-intervention approach to supporting children in families where their parents have alcohol and drug problems.The announcement of more than $9 million over the next three years comes during Children's Week, and recognises the particular needs of children living in households where alcohol and drugs are misused. Kids in Focus - Family Drug Support will provide specialist intensive parenting services such as in-home parenting support, intensive aftercare support for parents who have left rehabilitation services and ante-natal and post-natal support for pregnant women with dependency problems."
