Solstice vigil, remembering the 283 people who died unsheltered on the streets in Seattle/KC this year. We read their names and we remember their lives. #unhoused #harmreduction

Script from the Solstice Women in Black vigil.
“Without shelter people die. 283 people remembered tonight. A catastrophe.
The names of all 283 people.

This was the shortest tribute that I could find online, mine included. Appalachia just lost one of the greatest forces for harm reduction, racial justice and abolition in my lifetime. They will surely be missed. #harmredux ##harmreduction

Durham County’s Next Hurdle in the Opioid Battle: Reaching Every Community

Durham County has made progress in addressing the opioid epidemic. But with Black residents continuing to die from overdoses at a disproportionate rate, the work is far from over.

Supervised consumption sites are BARS 🍺 The alcohol industry spends billions of dollars a year to promote, encourage, and celebrate mood altering substances that kills people, but a supervised consumption site created to save lives is somehow controversial. 🤯 #wakeup #harmreduction #endstigma

Y'all we're an hour in and have already funded at least 144 HRT Harm Reduction Kits. That's 144 trans people who will have the supplies they need in 2025 to take their HRT! Let's keep it up!! 💕💸 💕💸🏳️‍⚧️ #trans #MutualAid #HRT #SavesLives #HarmReduction

Fuck it. Trans folks need MATERIAL SUPPORT. @distributeaid.org is launching an HRT Harm Reduction Toolkit that provides 1 year of medical supplies needed to take injection-based HRT. We were planning to go live in January, but I'm not waiting. Fund the kits here: distributeaid.org/hrt-harm-red...

Both are supervised consumption sites (bars) except one has a regulated supply of drugs with labels and percentages so you know exactly what you're consuming to reduce the harms. #Harmreduction

A well written comment from Syd Boa on a post the other day re: shutting down the safe consumption site at the Sheldon Chumir. Post: www.facebook.com/share/p/…. (Can't link directly to the comment sorry) #Alberta #abpoli #harmreduction

Screenshot of the comment, which reads:

The SCS isn’t in the wrong location - majority of people who are unhoused and use drugs remain downtown because that’s where all of the vital resources they utilize are located. The reason there is an increase of unhoused people and people who use drugs in the area is because 1. there is a severe lack of affordable and accessible housing and 2. It’s the only SCS in a city of over 1.6 million people and has only 6 booths.

Imagine if the city had one bar - what would that street look like? The solution is to fund and build SCS’s around the city; this would drastically decrease the traffic of site users hanging around the area of the site. Another solution is to increase funding to housing. If people had safe and private spaces to use drugs, they wouldn’t be forced to do so in public. People who are removed from this and have no ties to the housing and opioid crisis, whether is professionally or personally, would be shocked to see how incredibly difficult it is to secure stable housing.

Removing the SCS, which is a vital healthcare service, will increase the issues that community members are so concerned about, ie. crime, public drug use, needle debris.

People are not opposed to the SCS, they’re just uncomfortable seeing people suffer and would rather it be out of sight than to actually educate themselves and advocate for tangible, sustainable solutions.

Why are we not having a major discussion on #drugpolicy in the UK? #HarmReduction and #SafeSupply are needed to combat the massive damage illicit drugs do to people, families and communities. Not to mention the resources wasted on health, law enforcement, courts that could be utilised elsewhere.

Since Bobby Brainworm has cancelled all funding for gun research and violence prevention programs, we are revisiting a policy proposal from decades ago that deserves a chance. #harmreduction Good night!
