L’objectif
In Ontario, Canada, substance use is common among youth, yet treatment is underutilized, suggesting the potential for an unmet need in terms of substance use care. This study sought to include the unique perspectives of service providers who work directly with youth to examine these issues.
Constatations/points à retenir
Key public health strategies, as identified by participants, to reduce the overall negative effect of these factors include the need to reframe substance use discourse, from a moral failing to a public health issue and to educate youth about the impacts of use.
