KAMLOOPS — A portion of 100 addiction recovery and treatment beds announced by the province’s Ministry of Mental Health and Addictions Tuesday will come to the Kamloops area.
In a news release, the province identifies ASK Wellness as one of 14 organizations chosen for the publicly-funded beds. ASK will administer 12 beds.
“The additional beds will increase access to addictions treatment and recovery bed-based services in every health authority by bringing beds into the public system and will help to address long-standing service gaps for Indigenous peoples, women, rural and remote communities, and people transitioning from corrections,” said the ministry in a release.
