A talk that explores the origins of addiction and substance use through an indigenous lens. To shed some light on today's overdose crisis in British Columbia, Len takes us through the missing context of indigenous peoples and discusses ongoing challenges that limit progress. Understanding how all of these pieces fit together is a critical step to decolonizing and creating
lasting solutions to this community wide challenge.
