          Maison Decision House is a bilingual, non-profit organization that offers a 56-day in-house substance abuse treatment program for male federal offenders. The program operates with a general treatment philosophy based on the social learning model. Addictions are considered to be a learned behaviour that can be "unlearned" through the development of new thinking and coping skills. This approach relies on methods of maintaining and reinforcing rational thought and thinking patterns supportive of non-abusing behaviour. Maison Decision House also specializes in offering services to Inuit offenders through the maintenance of close ties with the local Inuit Centre. In addition, the facility has the capacity to provide methadone to individuals who are in need of such a treatment. Aftercare counselling is also offered to clients of other local halfway houses, as well as individuals living in the community, until they have reached the end of their sentence. In order to provide support to clients' spouses, a Women's Program is also offered. A computer maintenance program is now available at Decision House.

Description: 
           Pink & Purple Triangles is a support group for gay ex-Jehovah's Witnesses and for those that are dealing with the issue. We are not a religious organization nor are we a hate group. Our mission is to listen and give emotional support to those that are dealing with having left the JWs.

Taking Control of Our Lives Self-Help Group (PSO)
          Overcoming a sense of hopelessness and taking control of our lives are
important parts of our healing process.  The three steps in doing this
are: recognizing this as a possibility, accepting it as something we
deserve, and, gaining the confidence and skills to achieve it.  For
information about this self-help group, please call 567-4379 and leave a
message for Bill C.
