WA’s hidden crisis: Harm from alcohol Report
WA's hidden crisis: Harm from alcohol Report
WANADA is pleased to have worked with Cancer Council Western Australia, Alcohol and Drug Foundation and Telethon Kids Institute to launch WA’s hidden crisis: Harm from alcohol on 6 June 2022 (opens in a new tab).
The report, which has the support of many of WA’s health and community service organisations, draws attention to the harms from alcohol in the Western Australian community and urges action now to prevent them.
The report’s key messages are supported and extended through Cancer Council WA’s social media channels (opens in a new tab), and we encourage Western Australians to share these messages through your own social media networks.
For more information or to offer suggestions, please contact Cancer Council WA Alcohol Programs Team via [email protected] or contact WANADA Manager Advocacy and Systems Ethan James on (08) 6557 9400 or via [email protected].
