Community drug work

Project Description

Chrysalis was set up in 1998 by a group of local residents and workers to address, and respond to drug issues within the Greater Stoneybatter area, Dublin 7. Currently Chrysalis offers a broad range of services to people, living or working in the community, affected by drug use. It consists of community-based specialised drug assessment and coordinated, care-planned treatment which includes psychotherapeutic interventions.
