National Addictions Awareness Week 2025

Press Release

November 17, 2025

Sharing on behalf of Q’wemtsín Health Society (QHS) —

This is National Addictions Awareness Week (NAAW). The number of people within the Nation suffering from substance use disorder is higher than ever before. Every person facing addiction is someone’s friend, colleague, sibling, or loved one, and NAAW aims to help reduce the stigma surrounding substance use disorder.

QHS is hosting several events throughout the community this week. Each evening will bring together comfort and culture as we work together toward wellness. We are here to inform, remember, and inspire. Join us each night for a chance to win a PS5!

Everyone Welcome. For More Information, Please Contact Lindsie or Wan
