This toolkit is intended to provide guidance to Alcohol and Drugs Partnership (ADP) in operating in an outcomes based environment and to support working relationships with local partners and service providers. This toolkit is intended to assist ADPs to identify local priority outcomes relating to alcohol and drugs. The outcomes approach focuses on real and lasting results and should help create more confidence amongst a range of stakeholders (including service users and their families, service providers, funders and the Scottish Government) that high quality services, which achieve their goals, are being delivered.
