Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples: Presentation by Robin Dupuis, Executive Director, Labrador Inuit Alcohol and Drug Abuse Program

File contains a presentation by Robin Dupuis relating to the treatment of alcohol and drug abuse in Labrador. Dupuis provides a history of his organization and states that alcohol and drug abuse is the major problem facing Aboriginal people in Labrador. Once the 28-day treatment program is completed, after-treatment programs are not in place to assist people with their rehabiliation, therefore they relapse and continue to use alcohol or drugs. Dupuis calls on the Commission to ensure adequate funding for after-treatment programs. Following the presentation is a question-and-answer session with Rene Dussault, Co-Chair.
