+ Las Americas is back!/¡El retorno de Las Américas! NHRC is thrilled to uplift and amplify the voices and experiences of Latinx/é and Caribeñe harm reductionists during Las Americas (traditionally known as “Hispanic Heritage Month”), celebrated from September 15 to October 15. This initiative is designed to recognize the significant contributions of Latinx/é and Caribeñes that made harm reduction history possible as well as the harm reduction movement in the U.S. and the global south, fostering an inclusive and equitable environment for harm reduction and overdose prevention efforts among Latinx/é and Caribeñe communities. Planned activities include virtual panels, honoring both established and emerging Latinx/é and Caribeñe harm reductionists, and ensuring language justice through comprehensive translation services from English into Spanish and Spanish into English. We hope you’ll join us for the following sessions and associated office hours as part of the Las Americas Harm Reduction Spotlight Series (session descriptions included in registration links):
