Harm Reduction
What is Harm Reduction?
Harm reduction is exactly what it sounds like: reducing the harm associated with using drugs through a variety of public health interventions. But the concept relies on more than these tools and begins, at the most fundamental level, with recognizing that all people deserve safety and dignity. It does not treat drug use as a moral failing.
Harm reduction does not encourage drug use. Rather, it acknowledges that drugs are widely available in our society and that every individual who uses drugs deserves support, without judgement, to live healthy, self-directed, and purpose-filled lives.
