The core of the 29-page concept "Frankfurter Weg 2.0" is the new addiction aid center, which is to be built near the main train station.The further development of drug policy in Frankfurt is necessary because Crack Heroin replied as the main drug. "Low -threshold" offers for addicts In the future, all aid for drugs with drugs will be brought together under one roof.Heavy -dependent people should be stabilized there in terms of health and psychosocial in order to find a way out of addiction.The offers should be low -threshold and adapt to the respective needs of drug patrils. CDU calls concept "half -hearted" Criticism of the presented concept came from the CDU parliamentary group on Friday.The health policy spokeswoman Verena David called it "half -hearted".It blur the border between help and consumption and threats to "trivialize addiction instead of treating".Risks such as fentanyl would only be "casually addressed". David called for "binding personnel uptocks, secure funds, realistic schedules and clearly measurable control instruments." There had already been violent discussions about the planned help.For example, criticism from residents and the Chamber of Commerce and Industry (IHK) had a hail.Among other things, an open letter complained that the plans would continue to burden the Bahnhofsviertel and to suffer hotels and trade fair guests. Help on the street, supervised apartments People in particular are often restless, driven and physically and mentally heavily burdened.That is why they would have to continue to see on the street and have medical and psychiatric offers there.That is also part of the new concept. Experts of the drug department also suggest that addicts should be treated and supported earlier than before in the addiction stage in order to have greater chances of success when the search.You shouldn't wait until "her state of health has dropped to a inhumane level," confirms the head of the department. In the concept, among other things, small supervised apartments for addicts are proposed.
