Inspiring Change

Collaborating for Compassionate Communities: Community Action Tables

Addressing the toxic drug crisis requires intervention at many levels - from treatment, to harm reduction, to health promotion. Community Action Tables (CATs) were formed as a way to mobilize communities to target local resources where they are most needed. They are multi-sector partnerships that include people with lived and living experience and a broad range of community stakeholders.

ROAR was established to support and facilitate local partnerships, coordinate programs and services, address gaps, and plan for a collaborative, caring, creative community response to the overdose crisis caused by a toxic illicit drug supply.

 

Members include representatives of non-profit organizations, faith-based organizations, health authorities, the City of Abbotsford, pharmacies, peers (people with lived or living experience with substance use) & family members. The overdose public health emergency is complex and has no single one-size-fits-all solution.
