Phoenix’s Drug Related Deaths Strategy

Hope and Opportunity

8th December 2022

The following report describes the creation of Phoenix’s Drug-Related Deaths Strategy over the last 6 years. We have highlighted the influences, principles and key strategic actions of our bio-psycho-social approach.

As psychosocial provision specialists, we have a particular focus on the interrelation of social factors, and thoughts and behaviours, that could lead to harm. This psychosocial focus does not mean that we disagree with any other evidence-based strategies to reduce the harms of addiction, rather we have developed a strategy that focuses on what we can do within our core expertise and influence.

Our strategy defines some of the key actions we believe foster hope and opportunity. We have been working to this strategy for the last 6 years and we make it public now in order to add to the shared knowledge on this issue.
