DTORS is being carried out by the
National Drug Evidence Centre (NDEC)
in collaboration with the
National Centre for Social Research (NatCen)
on behalf of the
Home Office.
The study is about people who are entering drug treatment programmes in
England. It aims to find out what sort of things affect a person’s
chances of success in drug treatment programmes. The information will
be used to plan the provision of drug treatment and other services in
this country, to help as many people as possible overcome their drug
problems.
Baseline sample is described in:
