Alcohol, Cannabis, Opioids, Tobacco and Vaping
Substances may affect the way you act, think and feel.
Using these substances can have risks and a negative impact on your life. The more you use these substances, the greater the risk to your health.
Durham Region Health Department offers resources to prevent substance use and to reduce the risk of harm, injury and death linked to the use of substances. To protect the public from the harmful effects of second-hand smoke and vapour, we also enforce the Smoke Free Ontario Act, 2017 and the Durham Region Smoking and Vaping By law 28-2019.
