Context of the researchDrug and/or alcohol misuse by a parent can be harmful to children and wider family members. Because of this, parents who misuse drugs or alcohol often receive health and social care services to help them reduce their misuse and to protect their children. Having another parent or carer who does not misuse drugs or alcohol can be protective for children. However, little is understood about how to best support these parents and carers who are often overlooked regarding support. Our project will work closely with these 'affected' parents/carers and their children as well as with health and social care professionals involved in their care to develop an intervention which specifically supports to the non-substance misusing parent/carer. Aims and objectivesIn our project we will:- Map what support is currently available for families affected by a parent's drug or alcohol misuse to find out what works well and what does not. We will do this by working in groups with different health and social care professionals across the North East of England. - We will also ask children who are affected by parental drug or alcohol misuse and their parents/carers who do not misuse drugs or alcohol who they think can provide them with the most useful support, including family members, friends and local volunteer groups. - We will ask the non drug or alcohol-misusing parents and carers how best to help them support children affected by parental alcohol or drug misuse.- We will combine what we learnt and share this with parents/carers and health and social care professionals in workshops. We will work in partnership to develop a new way of helping parents and carers in their caregiving role. This will be the 'Safe Space Intervention'.Potential application and benefitsThe Safe Space intervention will be delivered to parents/carers of children aged 0-17 years (inclusive) who live within families affected by parental drug or alcohol misuse. Whilst these families often have a range of health and social care needs, we think that families who receive 'early help' and children's social care services will be the most likely group to receive the intervention as there is greatest need in this population. The Safe Space intervention aims to benefit children (improving their emotional wellbeing); their caregivers (improving their emotional wellbeing, quality of life and awareness of parental drug or alcohol misuse); the family (family functioning) and the professionals that support them (reducing the need for health and social care services including safeguarding services and increased confidence when supporting families affected).

研究背景父母滥用药物和/或酒精可能对孩子和更广泛的家庭成员有害。因此，滥用药物或酒精的父母往往得到保健和社会护理服务，以帮助他们减少滥用药物和保护子女。有另一位不滥用药物或酒精的父母或照顾者可以保护儿童。然而，对于如何最好地支持这些经常被忽视的父母和照顾者，人们知之甚少。我们的项目将与这些“受影响”的父母/照顾者及其子女以及参与照顾他们的卫生和社会护理专业人员密切合作，制定一项干预措施，专门为不滥用药物的父母/照顾者提供支持。目的和目标在我们的项目中，我们将：-绘制目前为受父母滥用药物或酒精影响的家庭提供的支持，以找出哪些有效，哪些无效。为此，我们将在英格兰东北部与不同的卫生和社会保健专业人员合作。-我们还将询问受父母滥用药物或酒精影响的儿童及其不滥用药物或酒精的父母/照顾者，他们认为谁能向他们提供最有用的支持，包括家庭成员、朋友和当地志愿团体。-我们将询问不滥用药物或酒精的父母和照顾者，如何最好地帮助他们支持受父母滥用酒精或药物影响的儿童。-我们将把我们所学到的结合起来，并在研讨会上与家长/照顾者以及保健和社会护理专业人员分享。我们将携手合作，开发一种帮助父母和照顾者发挥照顾作用的新方法。这将是“安全空间干预”。安全空间干预措施的潜在应用和益处将提供给0-17岁（含17岁）儿童的父母/照顾者，这些儿童生活在父母滥用药物或酒精的家庭中。虽然这些家庭通常有一系列的健康和社会护理需求，但我们认为，接受“早期帮助”和儿童社会护理服务的家庭将是最有可能接受干预的群体，因为这一群体的需求最大。安全空间干预旨在使儿童受益（改善他们的情绪健康）；他们的照顾者（改善他们的情绪健康、生活质量和对父母滥用药物或酒精的认识）；家庭（家庭功能）和支持他们的专业人员（减少对保健和社会护理服务的需求，包括保障服务和在支持受影响家庭时增加信心）。
