The scheme is being operated by the Garda National Drugs Unit (GNDU) in conjunction with the Family Support Network (FSN), which represents families of drug users.
The National Drugs Strategy (NDS) 2009-2016 set the issue of intimidation as a key new action.
The NDS said the intimidation – often over debts of a family member to dealers – took the form of threats, property damage and physical violence.
