The misuse of alcohol and drugs is a significant problem that affects not only individuals and families, but also the workplace. At NORCAS we offer a specialist training and consultancy service to help employers and organisations across different sectors to develop good practice in all aspects of alcohol and drug related issues.
Many people use and understand the word 'addiction' when referring to problem drinking, drug using or gambling, so we've used the term on our website. But at NORCAS, we often use the terms 'dependency' or 'addictive behaviour' instead because they're preferred by the World Health Organisation, and because they're less judgemental too.
As East Anglia's leading provider of addiction and dependency services, we pride ourselves on the quality and thoroughness of our work. Our training is constructive and carefully tailored to meet the needs of each organisation we work with and our policy consultation service provides workable and solid policies and procedures.
We work closely with you to devise and deliver practical solutions that can help your workers to better support your clients or help your organisation deal sensibly with substance use among staff. For staff and clients alike, we aim to improve understanding, increase confidence and develop skills that will enable positive change in people's lives.
Our work falls into three main areas:
