Except for one participant, the rest have all stopped taking drugs and alcohol – a 95% success for the first two months.
Thus the self-management approach to solving drug and alcohol problems did play an important role in encouraging good New Year resolutions.
Another participant testifies to this.

"After the self-management approach workshop, I promised not to get drunk.
"I was not interested in getting drunk but they were drinking next to my house and causing a disturbance.
