Pledge to make a difference, together.
Rideauwood Addiction and Family Services is a registered charity, which has served Ottawa since 1976. We deliver programs to adults, adolescents and family members who are, or have been, affected by addictions and related mental health issues. We provide non-residential group and individual treatment, public education, training and consultation. Rideauwood currently provides programs for more than 3,000 clients annually and we need your help to continue to provide first rate programming. Rideauwood receives funding from Federal and Provincial funders, as well as the City of Ottawa, the United Way, and from private donations. Even with all of this combined funding, it still falls short of demand, which can see clients waiting 3 to 8 months for services. Alcohol and drug problems cost Canada $23 billion annually (Canadian Centre for Substance Abuse). Ontario’s Auditor General reports that for every $1.00 spent on addiction treatment, taxpayers save $5.60.
