The Youth AOD Toolbox takes the vast range of evidence and literature that supports youth alcohol and other drugs (AOD) work, and presents it in an easily navigated and practical way.
The skills, resources and information in this Toolbox are for the use of youth-workers and supervisors providing AOD services to young people.
The Toolbox can be used by newer workers who want to enrich or reinforce their knowledge, and by established workers who would like to add new skills or modalities.
The Toolbox is a continuing project and is in constant development. More modules and content continue to be developed and existing content is added, edited and kept up to date.
