Introduction

It has been found that the youth and the adolescents are at risk and they are most likely to use alcohol, tobacco and other types of drugs. The culture affects the traditional use of tobacco, alcohol and other types of drugs and thus it affects the social practices that are governing the specific use of different types of substances within their culture. There are many such problems that remain unaddressed in the prevention of this issue and thus there is reciprocal influence of tobacco, other substances and alcohol. The youth who are engaged in these type of activities includes people with psychological distress, normative influence and boredom of the individuals. There are certain major factors that are predicting the use of drugs among the youths. This might be due to the influence of their peers, family history, psychological issues, school culture or other such reasons. A multidisciplinary approach can ensure that the program can be incorporated in a better way and thus proper treatment can be imparted to the individuals with such type of problems. This program includes proper psycho education, provision of training and skill programs, individual counselling as well as therapies. It is also vital to offer supportive counselling and motivate the youth to take up certain changes so that they can cope with distress and thus try to eliminate the use of drugs and other intoxicants. There are treatments for alcohol use disorder and this includes behavioural treatment such as individual therapies and provision of mutual support that are used for the prevention of drug use among Australian youths. 

 

Background literature

According to Gustafson et al.(2011), alcoholism is considered to be a chronic disease and there must be provision of on-going support to the individuals with these type of problem. There must be further appointment and on-going monitoring to check the status of the individuals and thus provide them proper recommendations that are considered to be chronic for this type of disease. There must be provision for continuous acre of the people who are alcohol addicts or drug users. The cost effective strategies are considered to be more beneficial for providing proper treatment to the patients with this type of disorder and thus help them with the advanced technological methods. Some individuals might have spontaneous recovery and thus they can relapse on their own. On the other hand, it is necessary to find out inadequate coping strategies and thus there must be provision of social support to the individuals. It is also vital to focus on the cognitive, affective, environmental and other skills and thus they are considered to be effective for different types of genetic and neurobiological disorder. 

Hoge et al. (2013) has stated that the addicted workforce is plagued by high turnover and there are concerns about its effectiveness. There must be certain policy framework so that it becomes easier to guide the workforce and thus this will help in the better acre of th4e individuals who are drug addicts or alcoholic. There are certain factors known as treatment gaps and this includes discrimination as well as insufficient health coverage and linkages among the other services. The nurses and physicians are not eligible for different kinds of grants. The funds are authorized by different kinds of provisions and thus it is considered to be appropriately small in those cases. The addiction workforce has to undertake different types of strategies and thus express their concern accordingly. There must be proper action plan and thus it initially focuses on the health care treatment and other integrated and behavioural problems in the society. 

According to Van Wormer & Davis (2016), there has beeninventionof different technologies can solve the problem of the addicted patients and thus help in their long term improvement. The prevention programs and the different types of constructs can be encompassed within the individual and thus it will be effective in the provision of better treatment to the patients. The abusers of these types of substances can also effectively cope with certain factors and thus they fail to avoid the temptation situations and other situations that are considered elicit for their behaviour. Moreover, this can be said to be possible with the help of different types of mechanism and thus it is considered to be effective in solving this problem. There must be development of cognitive control processes and this will help in the automatic sequence of the alcohol self-administered individuals and thus help them to cope up with different problems in the society. The adaptive or the functional decisions include the future avoidance of alcohol and there must be pleasant alternative behaviour to deal with it effectively. There is certain considerable evidence that is necessary to cope with the different responses and execution of the possible and superior outcomes of the individual. The alcoholics also has different types of cognitive control so that it becomes easier to deal with different types of problem and thus the execution is possible with the help of superior outcomes. These cognitive control resources are limited in its capacity and thus they are effective for different types of substance users. 

Johansen et al.(2013) has stated that there must be introduction of such system that will be considered to be effective for the planning process and thus it will enhance the identity of the individual to cope up with different types of problems and thus be aware of the possible symptoms of the individuals. This system might be considered to be ready for different types of planning processes and thus it helps the individuals to cope with the different responses accordingly in the society. This system might be considered to give better access to the individuals who are ready to take different steps or counselling processes that will help in the control resources or other different types of advice for the provision of social support to the individuals. Scott et al.(2013), has stated that it is necessary to provide access to different types of information processing and thus this will aid in the provision of different types of support to the individuals that will help them in their own decision making capacity. On the other hand, it can be said that the patients of alcoholism try to exert cognitive control over their own behaviour because of the intrinsic capacity and the other resources that are available. On the other hand, the absence of attractive alternatives and other types of responses are considered to be fundamental and thus they are considered to be relative of any other kinds of values in the society. The effective technologies are based on the support system and thus they are effective in the provision of different kinds of resources that addresses the needs of the society. 


 

Program objectives and rationale

The main objective of the program is to reduce the sustainable use of drugs and thus help in the development of health, safety and quality life among the adolescents in the Australian community. It has been found that the substance abuse has laid major impact on the families, community people and the other individuals in the society (Gemici et al., 2014). These effects can be considered to be cumulative and thus contribute to the physical, mental and social cost of the different health programs. The objectives of the developmental program include: 
a.    Improving the evaluation of the community level prevention with the help of enhanced research methods. The social and the environmental factors needs to be assessed in such case and there must be strategic implementation in the cultural and social setting.
b.    To develop self confidence among the individuals who are trying to lay a strong foundation among the developmental programs and thus recover from this type of problem.
c.    There must be certain other gaols in addition to addiction recovery and thus it is necessary to remain focussed in such cases so as to help the addicts to get way of their life.

 

Program content

It is vital to adopt a universal program and then divide it among the targeted mass of the society. There must be a particular approach and setting of the program. Moreover, the methods of delivery must also be chosen by the organization that is imparting the prevention program act. This includes multimedia and peer led education system, mentoring, and internet based program as well as mass media campaign in the society. There must be pre-treatment screening and this is considered to be the most effective step in the determination of proper treatment (Volkow et al., 2011). The individuals who begin to undertake different types of treatment may face difficulty in school or other premises and thus it is necessary to find out appropriate resources so that proper treatment is imparted to them in the right time. The adolescents must also be matched with the appropriate resources and according to their age so that they can bear the treatment in the best possible way irrespective of their gender, age and other factors. The twelve step approach i.e. known as Minnesota approach includes detoxification, individual and other modes of treatment and planning with provision of group therapies and other such counselling processes (Langman& Chung, 2013).

 

Program resources

It can be said that group counselling is considered to be the most effective method for providing proper treatment to the patients and the required resource in such case includes the participants. It is necessary to use holistic approach for providing proper treatment to the individuals and there must be expert dealing with this problem and providing adequate and effective steps so that they can get rid of it easily (Burd et al., 2010). The length of stay of the patients is considered to be a critical factor and thus the basic requirements must be available for them so that they can deal with it in an effective way. On the other hand, there must be different equipment’s and advanced technologies so that it becomes easier to judge the mood of the patients and thus provide them proper therapies from time-to-time. 
Budgeting and funding
Resources    Funding required
Advanced tools and technologies    $150
Fees for counselling    $45
Fees for different types of diagnostic test    $80
Doctor’s or physician fees    $55
Hospital charges    $200

 It can be said that the budgeting must be done in such a way so that it becomes easier for a patient to get rid of such kind of alcohol addiction. The doctors must advice proper kind of therapies to the patients so that they can get rid of it in a short span of time and with the available resources. If such programs involve high cost, the patients will not be willing to undertake the treatment and thus they will not get a solution to their problem. 

 

Program evaluation

It is necessary to identify the program and remain engaged with the community people so that it can help to develop personal information and thus help in removing the problem from the society. It is also necessary to gain a better understanding of the different types of prevention efforts and thus help in building a better community (Oliver et al., 2006). This gathering is possible with different types of supportive voices and thus this will help in the development of the community programs. It is also necessary to empower the community and thus keep a check on the program that is to be delivered in such a case. This will help in sharing the available information and thus help in building a better community for the development of the society (Willenbring, 2010). 


 

Conclusion

Therefore, it is necessary to take important decisions about the different types of developmental programs in the society and thus become alcoholic conscious. This will help in the proper development and improvement and thus it will help in the process of inventory that is related to ourselves and thus help in the long run development of the individuals. There must be provision of utmost care among the individuals so that the health of the individuals is not affected and thus proper care and treatment must be provided in such cases.
