| description | This research study sought to explore the sustainability of organisations in the field of substance abuse in South Africa.

The study explored the financial position of organisations in the field, perceptions regarding policy and legislation, staff related effects of working in the field, factors that make organisations vulnerable to closure and sustainability threats. |
