The aim of these programs is to enable individuals to reduce the personal and social harm associated with substance use, abuse and addictive behaviour. The groups explore underlying causes of addictive behaviours and build effective strategies to live life responsibly. Increased motivation, accountability and making better choices allow an opportunity to engage in alternate behaviours and move forward in recovery.

Individuals also feel more settled with the discharge transition knowing what to experience in the SUAP program.
