Eugenie’s story

Eugenie’s story

26 June, 2018

The North East Recovery and Support Program, funded by Eastern Melbourne PHN (EMPHN) and delivered by Banyule Community Health, is a holistic, personalised, recovery-focussed withdrawal and rehabilitation program for people with chronic alcohol and other drug misuse issues.

The eight-week program recognises alcohol and other drug misuse rarely occurs in isolation and is often symptomatic of a complexity of mental, physical and social health issues.  

Working with a collaborative team the initiative aims to provide people with tools to improve their quality of life, and contribute to their community in a self-sustainable way.

Eugenie completed the program in late 2017. This is her story.


The initiative is supported by funding from the Australian Government under the PHN program.
