Description

In 1988 a group of forty local Aboriginal people met to discuss their concerns that mainstream services were not responding effectively to the needs of Aboriginal people in the area of alcohol and substance abuse. A decision was made to set up an Aboriginal service that catered more appropriately to Aboriginal needs. The service became known as the Noongar Alcohol and Substance Abuse Service Inc (NASAS) and was incorporated in 1989.
By 1993 NASAS had purchased an office and program facility base in East Perth from where it conducted counselling, family intervention, community development, education and drug awareness programs and always in the context of “our people’s needs are our major priority”. The service has evolved and expanded enormously since then and in 2005 changed its name to Aboriginal Alcohol and Drug Service Inc (AADS) to better reflect its client group and more inclusive service aim “To make a difference by providing strong leadership in the treatment and prevention of alcohol and other drug (AOD) misuse amongst Aboriginal people”.
AADS is still the only service of its kind in the Perth metropolitan area.
