The provincial government will spend $255,000 each year on the five-year project, which begins this fall. The first step will be to develop community action teams at each of the four pilot sites. Saint John, Woodstock, Kent County and the Acadian Peninsula will each have a site for the project and community and health promotion partners will work together to find solutions unique to each community’s specific needs. The province partnered with an Icelandic research consultancy whose guidance program uses the Icelandic Prevention Model - an evidence and community-based process credited with lowering substance use in Iceland over the past 20 years.
