Committee on Drugs Use

Intergenerational Trauma: Discussion

2:00 am

Dr. Laura O'Reilly:

It is a resourcing issue but also a question of how we view these issues that people present with. We need to change the mindset away from viewing these as stand-alone issues, and even addressing them on their own, but rather that they are issues that are occurring together and how we support somebody.

That relates to resourcing but it also relates to the change of mindset that we do not always need to fix one issue before we can fix something else.
