There are relatively many resources on addiction topics for Russian-speaking migrants. These resources can also be used by many refugees from Ukraine, since the majority of Ukrainians can at least understand the Russian language and Russian is even the mother tongue for some of them.

This DHS brochure informs affected migrants and those seeking help in Russian and German about the dangers of using drugs, alcohol and tablets.

The Caritas video explains the effects of alcohol and the health risks associated with its use. It also explains the indicators of addiction and shows how the first step could be to get help.

The guide "Addiction is a disease" provides information about the topic of addiction, especially on points such as:

• What is addiction?
• Addiction and the law
• Addictive substances and their effects
• Help with addiction and dependence
• Addiction prevention
