About this policy brief
Outlines key considerations to inform proposed new regulations for supervised consumption sites (SCSs) and services, prepared in response to the August 2020 Health Canada call for submissions. The submission highlights the critical role SCSs play in harm reduction, recommends streamlining the application processes to better align with other health services, and encourages greater health and social services integration at SCSs, flexibility for services offered within individual SCSs and greater jurisdictional alignment in funding and support.
