%X Globally, the prevalence of drugs has become a major problem. Rehabilitation and correction programmes are experiencing great difficulties. In Sichuan province of China, two comparative modes, namely ¡°Blue Lotus Home¡± and ¡°Green Return Home¡± have been established, and are both aiming at assisting the drug users to restore their normal families and community lives. Both of the modes help to reduce the compulsory nature of rehabilitation programmes. Our experiences show that such reforms demand multi-level contributions from a society; in addition, it is also important to give respect to basic human rights and to provide professional services accordingly. Further contributions are required in terms of legal aid and psychological counselling to drug users.
