Excessive alcohol consumption is a significant risk factor for several serious health problems, including cardiovascular disease, cancer and psychiatric disorders. In a systematic review for the 2016 Global Burden of Disease Study,alcohol is identified as a major risk factor for global burden of disease and causes substantial health loss [Griswold MG, Fullman N, Hawley C, et al, 2018]. Excessive alcohol use can have a negative impact not only on the individual consumer but also on the community at large. Excessive alcohol consumption has been linked to an increase in violent crime. Family units are frequently impacted when a family member consumes excessive amounts of alcohol (Butcher, Mineka& Hooley, 2005). Excessive alcohol use is closely associated to family difficulties such as marital breakdown, domestic violence, and spousal abuse (Skrtic, Karlovic, Kruljac, 2008; Ogborne, 2000).Objectives: To assess the effectiveness of multi modal interventions on alcohol dependence, psycho-social problems and Quality of life among alcoholics. Design: quasi experimental design where Non Equivalent control group design was adopted for the study settings: Spandana Hospitals Pvt Ltd Participants: 10 alcoholics admitted in selected de-addiction centre who fulfil the inclusion criteria were selected by purposive sampling techniques. Methods: After obtaining the pretest data, during the first week, the experimental group received the Multimodal interventions (educational intervention, yoga and family guidance), whereas the control group received routine care. Reinforcement of the intervention was given on alternative weeks. The data were collected and analyzed by using descriptive and inferential statistics. Result: In experimental group, non parametric Repeated measures Friedman test analysis shows that, mean overall psycho-social problems score is statistically significant different between pre-test and posttest-II(2 = 130.12 P ≤ 0.001), mean overall severity alcohol dependence score is statistically significant different between pre-test and posttest-II (F = 11.00 P ≤ 0.01) and In mean overall QOL score is statistically significant different between pre-test and posttest-II( F = 9.45 P ≤ 0.001). Therefore, we can conclude that a multi modal intervention decrease psycho-social problems, severity alcohol dependence and improves significantly QOL score among alcoholics. This showed that that multi modal intervention was effective among alcoholics admitted in selected de-addiction center
