As in many parts in Canada and Ontario, London is experiencing an opioid crisis. In response, London is committed to responding in a comprehensive manner, which includes the establishment of Supervised Consumption Facilities. As part of the application for Supervised Consumption Facilities (SCF), a community consultation process was facilitated in November – December 2017 to gather feedback from London residents for the purposes of:
• providing information to Londoners about Supervised Consumption Facilities and local need
• Obtaining feedback on perceived benefits and concerns, recommendations to address concerns and site location suggestions and considerations
