Drugs CE Scheme
About
Galway City Partnerships
Drugs CE Scheme is a recovery – focused employment initiative designed to support
individuals who are rebuilding their lives after addiction.
Our
Drugs CE scheme is run in conjunction with COMPASS
recovery, part of the Western Regional Drug and Alcohol
Taskforce.
The programme provides a safe, structured, and supportive pathway for participants to engage in training, education, and meaningful work experience in a recovery setting, while continuing to strengthen recovery
journeys.
At the heart of the scheme is a commitment to personal
development and progression.
Participants are offered tailored supports, including one – to – one mentoring, recovery planning, and upskilling opportunities aligned with their
strengths and interests.
The scheme includes
access to
certified training (e.g. QQI courses), peer leadership
development, and
meaningful
work
placements in recovery
support settings
.
This creates an opportunity for participants to give back to their communities while building valuable experience and confidence.
The Drugs CE scheme has a
positive and strengths focused environment that promotes inclusion, purpose, and connection
and plays an important role in helping people sustain long – term recovery and move towards independence.
It not only supports the individual’s personal growth
and their future employment opportunities but this programme also strengthens the wider recovery community
in Galway.
