Government is forming an All-Party Committee on Substance Use and Addictions. This is in response to the continued need for prevention, early intervention, treatment and support for those living with mental health, substance use and addiction issues. The emphasis will be on youth and young adults. The committee will also closely look at the interrelationship between these issues and other social issues like health, housing, poverty and education. The committee’s goal is to provide recommendations on improvements to existing programs and services, and the development and implementation of new ones where necessary, to better serve the needs of Newfoundlanders and Labradorians into the future.
