Children at risk affected by substance misuse problems

Forty per cent of children in Scotland on the child protection
register live in families affected by alcohol and drug misuse,
according to FSU Scotland, writes Keith
Sellick.

At a workshop at Community Care Live Children and
Families, the organisation identified the lack of mainstream
services for children in such families as a major problem.

FSU Scotland has launched the Sunflower project which offers
group therapy for children.
