Alcohol and Drug Foundation

The Alcohol and Drug Foundation (ADF) is dedicated to minimizing the harm caused by alcohol and other drugs across Australia. With a vision of creating lives unrestricted by substance-related issues, the ADF focuses on inspiring positive change through evidence-based approaches. Their mission encompasses enhancing knowledge about the risks associated with alcohol and drugs, advocating for harm reduction strategies, and fostering a supportive environment for all Australians.

The ADF aims to significantly reduce the prevalence of alcohol and drug use among young people by 2025, encouraging healthier habits and altering societal attitudes to combat stigma. Through their comprehensive services, the foundation offers educational resources, community support, and strategic initiatives designed to empower individuals and communities.

By promoting research and implementing validated practices, the ADF strives to prevent and delay substance use, thereby contributing to a healthier, more informed society. Committed to inclusivity, the ADF embraces diverse communities and acknowledges the cultural significance of First Nations peoples in their efforts to drive social change.
