The Lethbridge Shelter and Stabilization Unit (LWS-SU) is a program under the Blood Tribe Department of Health (BTDH). The LWS-SU acknowledges Matpaii akaipoiyi (the People have spoken), and vows to stand strong and resilient in the face of substance use disorder and supports all people who come to the Wellness Shelter and Stabilization Unit seeking safe, non-judgmental, and holistic care.

The Lethbridge Wellness Shelter and Stabilization Unit recognizes the challenges and barriers faced by people experiencing addictions and offers Addictions Counsellor guidance, non-clinical support (individual and peer), and works to assist people to access recovery supports.

The Wellness Shelter within the LSW-SU provides a safe and trusting environment for shelter guests. Staff provide housing-focused and recovery-focused interventions providing pathways for our most vulnerable members.

The Stabilization Unit focus on recovery­oriented supports, assisting those on their journey of recovery, one step at a time, providing referral pathways. Those requiring supports are welcome on a short-term basis while they stabilize and work to secure a space in detox, treatment or other recovery-oriented supports. We also welcome those in treatment that need assistance with relapse on a short-term basis.
