Our Addictions Services have extended to include a new Culturally Based Community Withdrawal Management Program. These staff are housed within our Giyak Moseng office. This program is a comprehensive staged approach to implementing a withdrawal management program premised on a harm reduction philosophy with culture at the foundation of the program. The goal of the program is to build community capacity to better support individuals and families struggling with substance abuse. Land based activities, teachings, ceremonies and cultural camps will enhance the existing services of Giyak Moseng (The Right Path) Counselling & Prevention Services.
