Abstract
Results from the project are intended to lay the groundwork for building a population-based model for addiction and mental health service planning in Alberta. Although many of the project’s conclusions echo longstanding concerns expressed by stakeholders about Alberta’s system of care for addiction and mental health problems, GAP-MAP went beyond anecdotal observations to collect systematic empirical data on
unmet population need, service capacity, and costs. In addition to providing a relatively fine-grained description of these topics, the project synthesized findings from these data sources to provide examples of
how needs-based planning for addiction and mental health services could be undertaken.
