WHO WE SERVED

MSORT served people in the County and City of Peterborough to try and reduce the negative health (physical, mental and emotional) impacts of a poisoned illicit drug supply, especially those related to opioid overdoses, risk of overdose, and substance use disorder. While the people at risk of and who were experiencing overdoses were a priority for MSORT, the team also supported the people close to them who were also affected by the impacts of the current opioid crisis.

MSORT also sought to support a collaborative connected system of services to the primary population above by supporting service providers as well, especially those on the frontlines in supportive and social housing settings and people working in the shelter system.
