DAAT Assertive Response Team (DART)

Team Profile, Latest Updates and Contact List

The DART provides frontline substance misuse outreach work across Hackney. They endeavour to engage ‘hard to reach’ individuals with serious drug or alcohol misuse who have not been engaged or been retained in treatment and support services. DART outreach workers aim to work with these people in a responsive, pro-active and flexible manner, often at the point of disengagement from other services or at times when the client is at risk of disengaging and becoming increasingly vulnerable. They focus on various substance misusing street populations including street based sex workers, others associated with street based sex workers, chaotic drug users, poly drug users, dual diagnosis clients, BME clients, homeless people, young adults, Drug Interventions Programme clients, street drinkers and self referrals.
