In case you missed it: National Harm Reduction Coalition + Academy of Perinatal Harm Reduction released Pregnancy and Substance Use: A Harm Reduction Toolkit, and have been holding events for harm reductionists, birth workers, advocates, clinicians and community members.
We are halfway through the event series and wanted to share the event recordings and invite folks to come to our remaining sessions highlighting community-based programs doing this work and holding space for community members who have experienced harms at the hands of the Drug War. There will be English to Spanish live translation for all of the events.
