Quality standards can support interventions and organizations in improving the quality of their professional practice. However, the currently available documents are often complex and abstract, which can discourage the personnel delivering prevention, treatment/social integration and harm reduction programmes and services. The quality standards implementation toolkit has been developed as a response to this issue as part of the FENIQS-EU project.

It provides educational resources and step-by-step guidance to break down the QS implementation into a feasible process. The toolkit includes a presentation of the basic concepts, practical guidance, tools and tips for service providers and a selection of good practices which can serve as examples.

The toolkit will be presented at the FENIQS-EU final conference taking place in Prague between the 12th-13th June and will be available on the FENIQS-EU project’s website in early July, along with a video tutorial regarding its contents.
