The Community Drug Strategy in Sudbury said it has changed its leadership and has realigned itself to focus on the recommendations from the Greater Sudbury Summit on Toxic Drugs.
"This means shifting emphasis away from enforcement to more root cause approaches on health promotion, providing comprehensive supports like housing and employment, and substance use care," said the public health news release. The Community Drug Strategy is building on its foundation to strengthen community collaboration and aims to address harms associated with substance use with increased representation from people with lived and living experience, Indigenous community partners, BIPOC, 2SLGBTQ+, and experts in various fields, said the release.
