Ontario Protecting Communities and Supporting Addiction Recovery with New Treatment Hubs

The government is taking action to protect the safety of children and communities by banning supervised drug consumption sites within 200 meters of schools and childcare centres. We are also mandating new protections to better protect community safety near remaining sites, in addition to introducing legislation this fall to prohibit municipalities or organizations from standing up new consumption sites or participating in federal so-called “safer” supply initiatives.

As part of a comprehensive system of care that prioritizes community safety and focuses on giving people their lives back through treatment and recovery, our government is investing $378 million in 19 new Homelessness and Addiction Recovery Treatment (HART) Hubs that will reflect regional priorities and connect people struggling with addiction to the support and services they need.

Through Your Health: A Plan for Connected and Convenient Care and building on the Roadmap to Wellness, our government is taking action to make it easier and faster for individuals to connect to mental health and addictions services in your communities.
