Toward an Alberta model of wellness
Alberta’s government is helping everyday Albertans by making record breaking investments in addiction and mental health care.
Budget 2022 includes about $1 billion annually for addiction and mental health care and additional funding of $60 million over three years to build a recovery-oriented system of care. This new funding complements the significant investment of $140 million over four years made by Alberta’s government in 2019 to increase access to a comprehensive recovery-oriented system of care.
The Alberta model of recovery-oriented care is based on the belief that everyone has the right to be supported and face as few barriers as possible in their pursuit of recovery. Alberta’s government is focused on increasing access to a range of prevention, intervention, treatment, and recovery services. The system involves a coordinated network of government and non-profit partners who are all working in the same direction to improve outcomes for Albertans.
