North Winds progressing plans for 60-unit addictions recovery facility in the Peace.
Regional politicians will get a look today at plans for a $25-million addictions recovery and housing centre in Pouce Coupe.
North Winds, which currently operates a 10-bed centre in Farmington, says statistics substantiate the need, processing 228 applications and accepting 75 into treatment in 2021-22. An expanded facility in Pouce Coupe would use an addictions recovery community housing model in collaboration with Vancouver-based Streetohome, according to the society. As well as detox and treatment, the facility would also include dining and meeting rooms, a library, kitchen, and laundry, as well as reception, intake, and administrative areas.
The society says the project is planned for 23 acres of land already zoned for its proposed use, and that public engagements with the local council and community were held from February to May last year.
