Mobile site in Lethbridge has more capacity than old SCS: Associate minister’s office

Capacity at the new mobile supervised consumption site in Lethbridge is able to meet the needs of the old ARCHES site, a press secretary for mental health and addictions minister Jason Luan says.

Kassandra Kitz claims that its own data states that in the months prior to COVID-19, ARCHES was seeing roughly 150 clients per day, and roughly 60 clients per day following the pandemic and leading up to the closure. The AHS-operated site can support roughly 200 clients per day, Kitz says.
