V-ITTC presenting at Hanoi DSEP-Organized Conference

Developed by Vietnam ITTC

Published on 12/7/2023

On December 7, 2023, the Hanoi Department for Social Evils Prevention (DSEP) organized a conference to evaluate the management, care, and support strategies for individuals post-drug rehabilitation within their residential communities in Hanoi. The Vietnam International Technology Transfer Center (V-ITTC) presented the results of their pilot intervention model, which aimed to enhance the social and legal assistance, consultation, and referral services for people who use drugs (PWUD) in the community. The project focused on improving the capacity and effectiveness of community social workers by adopting two evidence-based interventions: motivational interviewing and online support groups. The pilot model was well-received by community social workers, PWUD, and their families, showing some initial positive outcomes. V-ITTC will collaborate with Hanoi DSEP to continue and expand this model across Hanoi, focusing on varied communication channels and interventions tailored to the various needs of PWUD.
