'For many people pursuing recovery from addiction, pre-treatment support will be a critical part of their recovery,' said Minister Nicholas Milliken on Friday.
“If are asking for help, we need to make sure we’re there for them. The expectation should never be that they have to do it alone,” Community and Social Services Minister Jeremy Nixon told reporters on Friday.
Nixon and Milliken did not provide details on how the government is planning on tracking the success of these programs, only a promise that the government will provide “transparent” data.“Data is one of the things that has been lacking in previous governments,” Milliken said. “We’ve made sure that our government has been the most transparent with regard to data surrounding mental health and addictions issues.
