- W2615682610 abstract "Heroin use and abuse has become a widespread social phenomenon in Kenya. Heroin rehabilitation as a mitigating mechanism has emerged with the Civil Society Organizations (CSO5) taking the lead in the provision of such services than the mandated government agency namely National Agency for the Control Against Drug Abuse (NACADA) in Coast Province. However, the existence and provision of heroin rehabilitation services by the CSOs for over a decade in the country has been occuring against a backdrop of a lack of a legislative framework. This notwithstanding, demand for heroin rehabilitation services is overwhelming and escalating as documented in this work. This study therefore sought to examine the effectiveness of heroin centers in the rehabilitation and social reintegration of users.The main objectives of this study were three fold. First, was to identify factors that have a significant influence on the frequency of heroin use. Second, was to determine the factors that have a significant bearing on the predisposition of heroin users to seek professional help. Third, was to establish factors that account for the effectiveness of heroin rehabilitation centers.The study was an evaluation survey design based on a sample size of 459 informants comprising 384 heroin users, 60 participants in six (6) Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) made up of members of the rehabilitation centers management boards and counsellors as well as 15 key informants drawn from police, prison and medical departments in the studied areas. To ensure a representative sample was drawn both probability and non-probability sampling techniques were used." @default.
