Meeting the Needs of our Community

Prevention

Primary Prevention

Primary prevention aims to delay the early introduction of any substance among youth, while preventing misuse and addiction in adults.

Harm Reduction

Harm Reduction prevents early death, promotes health and prevents the spread of infectious diseases by meeting people in active addiction where they are rather than making judgements about where they should be.

Support
