Introduction
Addiction & recovery create a life worth living. One Life Recovery Society’s mission is to break the stigma of addiction and influence and inspire individuals to seek recovery and for those in recovery to continue to grow and reach their full potential.
Here at One Life we believe in the importance of supporting individuals struggling with addiction to reclaim their lives. With your help, we can continue to do so.
One Life Recovery Society bridges the arduous gaps in the mental health care systems to ensure that those struggling with mental health and addictions are not left to suffer and may find constructive and long term support that leads them to holistic recovery and fulfilling lives.
Since 2016, Canada has seen a significant rise in overdose deaths, particularly related to opioids. By early 2023, estimates indicated that over 30,000 people had died from opioid overdoses across the country, with men comprising a large portion of these deaths. In recent years, men have represented approximately 70-80% of all opioid-related fatalities.
We are a first and second stage facility – once someone has completed detoxification and have been cleared by a physician they can start the next steps of their journey with us. One Life Recovery Society provides 21 beds in between three up to date homes in the heart of Nanaimo British Columbia.
