How Are Mental Health and Addictions Services Working for You?

Official title: Mental Wellness and Addictions Recovery Satisfaction Survey

Open Policy & Studies Health & Safety
The NWT government wants to know if mental health and addictions services are meeting residents' needs. They're gathering feedback to identify what's working, what's not, and where gaps exist. Your input will help shape how these services are delivered across the territory.

Why This Matters

Struggling to access mental health support? Know someone who is? This survey is your chance to tell the government what's actually happening on the ground. In a territory as vast as the NWT, getting help can mean long waits or long drives. Your feedback could change that.

What Could Change

Based on survey results, the GNWT may expand services in underserved communities, reduce wait times, or add new treatment options. Funding priorities for mental wellness programs could shift based on what residents say they need most.

Key Issues

  • What barriers prevent residents from accessing mental health and addictions services?
  • How can access to these services be improved across the territory?
  • What additional supports are needed for recovery?
