Addiction Recovery - Where are we in 2024?
Addiction recovery is possible. As we approach the end of another year, many families in Canada will experience the heartache of celebrating the holidays without a loved one who has died from a drug overdose. Every person living on the streets is someone's son or daughter.
THE ADDICTION CRISIS - CAN IT BE SOLVED?
Drug addiction is not something we can turn a blind eye to. We need to advocate for anyone suffering with an addiction and treat them with compassion and kindness. Often times addicts are living on the street, and they need shelter, food and support, so that they can feel safe and cared for. Drug dependency may manifest as a result of personal injury, excessive opioid prescriptions, job loss, challenges with mental health, abuse, or the inability to afford housing.
