Evaluation of Bewildered : alcohol, drugs and your children

This evaluation report examines the use and effectiveness of the ALAC resource, Bewildered – Alcohol, drugs and your children.

Bewildered aims to provide insight and pathways to services for parents whose children have alcohol and drug problems by telling the stories of five parents and two young people. The resource was developed for ALAC by Michael Bird and includes a DVD and workbook. It was released in September 2006.

There was very positive feedback about Bewildered from parents and service providers who had utilised this resource. Interviews with parents showed that Bewildered had helped many of them make changes to their attitude and behaviour that had positive results for them and their families.
