Canadian Addiction Treatment Centres (CATC)’s Post

Today, on International Overdose Awareness Day, we join together to remember those we have lost to drug overdose and to raise awareness about this pressing issue. Each year, thousands of lives are tragically cut short by overdose, leaving families and communities devastated. It's crucial that we destigmatize addiction, support those struggling with substance use disorders, and advocate for accessible treatment and prevention measures. The theme for 2024 is “Together we can”, highlighting the power of our community when we all stand together. Let's stand in solidarity with those affected, educate ourselves and others, and work towards a future where overdose is preventable. Together, we can make a difference. #TogetherWeCan #IOAD2024 #EndOverdose #OverdoseAwarenessDay #EndOverdose

With fentanyl leading to a rising overdose crisis among U.S. teens, access to all treatment pathways possible will be essential. Residential addiction treatment centers for adolescents are costly and unevenly distributed across the U.S., with more than 60% of facilities that accept Medicaid already at capacity. A new study shows that 23 states don't have treatment facilities that accept Medicaid, limiting an at-risk population's access to treatment. Learn more on #HealthCity: https://bit.ly/3HG9vzS

At SMF, we understand the devastating impact of drug abuse on individuals, families, and entire communities. This year's theme, "Share Facts on Drugs, Save Lives," highlights the crucial role of awareness. The more we understand the dangers of drug use, the better equipped we are to prevent addiction and promote healthy choices. But awareness is just the first step. We also need to support those struggling with addiction. Quitting is never easy, but it is possible. SMF is committed to providing resources, counseling, and a compassionate environment for those seeking a path to recovery. However, prevention is always better than cure. That's why we dedicate our efforts to educating young people about the dangers of drug use. We believe in empowering them to make informed decisions for a brighter future. #sundarammedicalfoundation #drugprevention #smfchennai
