National Native Alcohol and Drug Abuse Program treatment centre outcome study : summary report / Mental Wellness Division, Inter-professional Advisory and Program Support Directorate, First Nations and...: H34-319/2012E-PDF
"Substance use issues continue to be a priority issue for First Nations people in Canada. The primary network in place to respond to these issues is the National Native Alcohol and Drug Abuse Program (NNADAP). NNADAP was one of the first programs developed in response to community needs. It evolved from the National Native Alcohol Abuse Program (a pilot project in 1974) to a Cabinet approved program in 1982. Health Canada supports First Nations and Inuit communities to establish prevention and treatment programming and interventions aimed at reducing and preventing alcohol, drug, and solvent abuse among on-reserve populations and supporting overall community wellness. Through NNADAP and the National Youth Solvent Abuse Program (NYSAP), Health Canada provides direct funding to 56 First Nations addiction treatment centres and targeted funding to three additional addiction treatment centres to better serve First Nations and Inuit clients"--p. 3.
