Psychotropic drug abuse among young persons below 21 years old has been increasing at an alarming rate in Hong Kong recently. Probation officers when working with young probationers who abuse psychotropic drugs need to contend not only with a complex phenomenon, but be challenged by the dilemmas of the nature of their profession between care and control. This article, by drawing from a discussion with a group of probation officers and feedback from a group of young probationers, raises some issues and questions for probation service in Hong Kong pertaining to working with young probationers who abuse psychotropic drugs. Some suggestions are made for probation officers to achieve more effective planning and interventions in working with young probationers who abuse psychotropic drugs. 由 於 滥 用 精 神 药 物 是 一 个 颇 复 杂 的 现 象， 身 兼 数 职 的 感 化 官 要 有 效 地 帮 助 日 益 增 多 的 滥 用 精 神 药 物 的 青 少 年， 委 实 不 易。 本 文 根 据 一 次 与 香 港 感 化 官 的 讨 论 和 一 群 接 受 感 化 的 青 少 年 的 回 应， 探 讨 感 化 官 处 理 青 少 年 滥 用 精 神 药 物 问 题 时 所 遇 的 挑 战， 并 建 议 符 合 社 会 工 作 价 值 和 香 港 情 况 的 方 案。
