Dthina Yuwali is an Aboriginal-specific Alcohol and Other Drugs(AOD)program based on the relationship between substance use and pathways to offending. It is based on cultural learning and utilises learning circles, cultural representations of concepts to facilitate learning, and the use of elders and respected community members throughout the program.
Dthina Yuwali explores the change process, managing emotions related to change, and focuses on relapse prevention and maintenance. The program can be presented in its entirety or as individual stages.
