Abstract

The Review of the Northern Territory Sobering Up Shelters was undertaken by PriceWaterHouseCoopers Indigenous Consulting, following Government’s commitment to undertake the review in the Alcohol Harm Minimisation Action Plan 2018-2019. The Review focused on the nature of the services provided by Sobering Up Shelters in the Northern Territory and considered how these services could be enhanced and strengthened. The Review identified the importance of Sobering Up Shelter services as the entry point into an overall Alcohol and Other Drugs treatment system, assisting the most vulnerable in our community taking steps to get out of the cycle of problem drinking. The Review made ten recommendations to Government to enhance the overall functions of the Sobering Up Shelters, all of which are supported by Government.,
