These case studies look at the impact of TYS and TYS related processes on
substance misuse.
They outline the challenges faced, the actions taken and the resulting
impact, and offer some implementation tips for others working with young
people at risk of substance misuse.
Their purpose is to give you a taste of the types of practice as they
emerge; the opportunity to find out more about issues relevant to you and your
authority, and to illustrate how TYS helps vulnerable young people, through
early identification, intervention and preventative work, to deal with their
problems before they escalate.
