dc.description.abstractSubstance abuse is a social problem that has contributed to a burden on the justice system. In South Africa, this problem has been found to be prevalent in Cape Town, the capital of the Western Cape. Methamphetamine, alcohol, cannabis, heroin and cocaine are the most commonly used drugs for which people have sought treatment. These substances are associated with violent behaviour and mental health behaviours which then result in criminal activities. Treatment however is not easily accessible for some socio-economic groups as it is expensive and geographically inaccessible. Alternate methods of treatment in the form of community interventions have been implemented in response to the need for treatment in these disadvantaged communities. This report is an evaluation of one such intervention based in Hanover Park, Cape Town.en_ZA
