New Zealand Arrestee Drug Abuse Monitoring annual report 2006
New Zealand Arrestee Drug Abuse Monitoring (NZ-ADAM) is a programme which seeks to measure drug and alcohol use among people who have recently been apprehended by police.
51½ÖÉä obtained funding for a one-year initial pilot of NZ-ADAM at four sites (Whangarei, Henderson, Hamilton and Dunedin) to be followed by a three-year extension should the pilot prove to be successful and useful. Health Outcomes International (HOI) was contracted by 51½ÖÉä to conduct the pilot.
This is the first annual report for NZ-ADAM and covers the operation of the first full year of the NZ-ADAM programme in which all four participating sites (Whangarei, Henderson, Hamilton and Dunedin) were covered. Data collection for this period commenced on 1 July 2005 and continued through to 30 June 2006.
