Manitoba selects Winnipeg site for first supervised drug consumption facility, aimed at reducing overdoses.

Manitoba's government has chosen a location in Winnipeg's core area for the province's first supervised drug consumption site. Funded with $727,000, the Indigenous-led project, in partnership with the Aboriginal Health and Wellness Centre, aims to provide a space for drug use with trained staff to handle overdoses and support for those seeking treatment. The site will not supply drugs and is located near services addressing homelessness and addiction.
