Interior Health presents plan for safe consumption sites to council
KAMLOOPS — It was back in September of 2016 Kamloops Council first heard from Interior Health about safe consumption sites within the city. Today, representatives from IHA were back before council this to update councillors on the progress of the sites, and address any concerns they may have had.
With no sign of the public health emergency in response to the opioid crisis ending soon, representatives from Interior Health went before Kamloops city council today, to update mayor and council about plans for a pair of mobile safe consumption sites within the city.
“We’re still finalizing the various pieces of the application,” Rae Samson, from Interior Health said after today’s presentation to council. “Once we have those, then we’ll go forward.”
