| Abstract: | Gozo has a population of 29,000 people and is the second largest island of the Maltese archipelago, which is in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea. The Organisation for Anti-drug Solidarity and Initiative (OASI) was instituted in Gozo in 1991. Its aims are to reduce spread of substance abuse and to treat those suffering from addiction. To achieve this, an outpatients tertiary prevention programme was set up. The team administering the programme consists of a coordinator, a medical officer, two counsellors (one full time and one part-time) and a part-time social worker. |
