This video will provide healthcare providers with an understanding of why so many of our people - People Who Use Drugs (PWUD) - are unable to overcome addiction. We will share our journey together through two pandemics (COVID and The Overdose Crisis) and how we supported each other through recovery and through active addiction. Our hope is that people can better understand the multiple layers of trauma that PWUD experience, along with the importance and benefits of reviving the Indigenous culture for land based healing.
