North Inner City Drugs & Alcohol Task Force

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That's how it goes
Everybody knows ?

The NICDATF has been reestablished at a time when service providers and authorities in Dublin are bracing themselves for an increase in opioid use, as well as a renewed effort to deal with open drug dealing and intimidation.
Areas in the north inner city have long been “traumatised” by poverty and addiction, O’Carroll told us. He said it’s vital that people with lived experience of addiction are on the new task force to give their insights on what communities need.

'Everyone knows drugs are sold and people are intimidated in areas affected by poverty' The North Inner City Drugs and Alcohol Task Force has been reestablished amid a national conversation about our approach to drug use.
