Upcoming Webinar
Harm Reduction at SSPs and in Primary Care
February 26, 2025 | 12-1pm PT
As methamphetamine-involved deaths rise in WA State, it is essential staff and providers are familiar with common health that may occur with meth use, and approaches to minimize their impacts.
Harm reduction seeks to reduce the negative consequences of drug use. Although harm reduction strategies for stimulants are less well-known there are many services and supplies that are helpful for people who use methamphetamine.
In this session, you’ll learn what harm reduction looks like in two settings (a syringe services program and primary care), specific strategies to support the health and wellbeing of people who use meth, and how programs engage clients or patients in conversations about their health.
