SUBSTANCE USE

Healthy U approaches substance use through a non-judgmental, harm reduction lens. We aim to reduce the risks that can be associated with substance use by encouraging protective strategies such as owning a take-home naloxone kit and using a designated driver. 

Sometimes the use of substances can have a negative impact on your day-to-day life. If you are facing challenges related to substance use, you can always find support here, at the Student Wellness Centre.

Additionally, the Rapid Access to Addictions Medicine (RAAM) Clinic may be to your benefit.

Land Acknowledgment

The University of Manitoba campuses and research spaces are located on original lands of Anishinaabeg, Ininiwak, Anisininewuk, Dakota Oyate, Dene, and Inuit and on the National Homeland of the Red River Métis.​

We recognize that the Treaties signed on these lands are a lifelong, enduring relationship, and dedicated to upholding their spirit and intent. We acknowledge the harms and mistakes of the past and the present. With this understanding, we commit to supporting Indigenous excellence through active Reconciliation, meaningful change, and the creation of an environment where everyone can thrive. Our collaboration with Indigenous communities is grounded in respect and reciprocity and this guides how we move forward as an institution.
