dc.description.abstractDistinct from western Managed Alcohol Programs (MAPs), Indigenous-led alcohol harm reduction programs can be defined by both ‘culture as healing’ and decolonized harm reduction philosophies. We sought to explore experiences of Indigenous ‘family members’ (participants) in an Indigenous-led alcohol harm reduction program and culturally supportive housing to identify appropriate supports according to family member perspectives, and to inform delivery of the program.
dc.description.sponsorshipThis study is part of a broader program of research funded through support of the Canadian Institute of Health Research (CIHR) Fall 2019 Operating Grant (#PJT-168908). Development of the research protocol was supported by funding from BC SUPPORT Unit Strategies in Patient Oriented Research (SPOR) Graduate Fellowship (2019).
