A new support line is now available for families impacted by substance use.

 

The organization Mom’s Stop the Harm has launched a hotline aimed at helping people who are grieving the loss of a loved one or supporting someone struggling with substance use.

 

Stephanie Hizert, Prevention and Education Consultant with the Northern Health Region, says the service offers a safe and supportive space for people who may be feeling overwhelmed.

 

 

The hotline connects callers with compassionate peer support and can also help direct people to local resources if they need additional help.

 

The Mom’s Stop the Harm support line is available Thursdays and Fridays from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. at 1-866-355-6784.
