The article appeared on Aug. 31, 2017, in the print edition. It focused on issues concerning the use of naloxone as a treatment option when confronting a fentanyl overdose. Anyone with an addiction needs both a short-term and a long-term response. A short-term response by first responders is critical, as are options for the concerned public who may be dealing with a person at risk of or is experiencing an overdose. Next, there is the option of "detox" which is a process of removing the physical aspects of addiction.

And, to learn more about detox options both public and private across Canada visit Sunshine Coast's public service website at http://canadadrugrehab.ca. During and after detox, long-term treatment plans to deal with the psychological aspects of addiction are defined.

The advertisement by Sunshine Coast was entitled "Find Your Power" and encouraged persons to learn more about their approach to treating addiction by visiting the Centre's website. It featured several lively photos with captions such as "Take Control," "Get Connected," and "Find Your Purpose," building on the Centre's non-12 Step methodology based upon the meaning structure of Viktor Frankl.

Journalists and others interested in learning more about the opioid crisis and how Sunshine Coast offers a unique treatment methodology are encouraged to visit the website and reach out to the Centre for interview opportunities.
