A new substance-use treatment and recovery facility is opening in Victoria early next year, according to the B.C. government.

The facility, called Coastal Sage Healing House, will include six treatment beds for women and non-binary people who are looking for help with substance-use challenges.

Residents will be able to stay at the Coastal Sage Healing House for up to 90 days depending on their individual needs. "These new beds will help more women access life-saving treatment and recovery supports, and fill a gap in services right here on Vancouver Island," she said.

A whopping 6 beds
