Family Addiction Support Network
The Family Addiction Support Network (FASN) understand that there are large numbers of families affected by drug use living in the North East Region area yet they believe that the amount of family members availing of support is relatively low. As a Network they are developing an open, friendly, accessible and non-judgemental family support service so that no family has to live with the isolation that drug use can bring.
