Fully Funded Virtual Treatment for Addiction
Saskatchewan residents, you can get no-cost virtual treatment for addiction — from the Saskatchewan Health Authority and EHN Canada
Acknowledging that you are struggling with drug or alcohol addiction is the first step towards recovery. But for too many people across our province, the cost of treatment is stopping them from accessing the care they need.
The Saskatchewan Health Authority is proud to have partnered with EHN Canada, one of the country’s leaders in evidence-based addiction treatment. Together, we’re offering virtual treatment – at no cost – to Saskatchewan residents.
