SOStanze è un ampio progetto supportato da ASFAT (Associazione Solidarietà Famiglie Tossicodipendenti) e consiste in una campagna di sensibilizzazione e prevenzione nell’ambito dell’uso di sostanze stupefacenti. Il progetto prevede una serie di installazioni multimediali interattive attraverso le quali lo spettatore possa ottenere spunti di riflessione sulla tematica della tossicodipendenza.
Il ciclo si compone di tre installazioni multimediali, ciascuna delle quali è inerente ad una fase particolare della tossicodipendenza, dal primo approccio con le sostanze stupefacenti alla riabilitazione del soggetto nella società. L’utilizzo delle tecnologie permette allo spettatore di potersi confrontare in prima persona con la tematica e allo stesso tempo di comprendere meccanismi della tossicodipendenza altrimenti difficilmente comunicabili.
Remarks about the translation
“SOStanze” is the title of a multimedia artwork (www.labun.it).
Since this translation may be very difficult, I'd like this translation to be reviewed by a English native speaker (e.g. Kafetzou). Thank you!

SOStanze is a broad project supported by ASFAT (Association for Solidarity with Families of the Drug-Addicted) and it consists of a campaign of consciousness-raising and prevention in the area of hallucinogenic drug use. The project provides a series of interactive multimedia installations through which the audience can obtain points for reflection on the theme of drug addiction.
The cycle is composed of three multimedia installations, each of which pertains to a special phase of addiction, from the first contact with the narcotic to the readjustment of the subject to society. The use of technology allows the spectator to confront the theme from a personal angle and at the same time to understand mechanisms of the addiction otherwise difficult to communicate.
Remarks about the translation
I did quite a bit of editing here, to make it sounds like native-speaker English. -- kafetzou 3:)

The description of ASFAT I provided was just a rough meaning-only explanation, I don't think it would fit in the text...

I tried to correct the text. This is the result:
