We take pride in supporting National Poison Prevention Week, an annual awareness campaign led by Parachute Canada that focuses on the causes of poisoning and ways to prevent it.

With many potential poisons – such as medications, household cleaners and cannabis products – in and around the home, it’s important to know how to safely store these items and what to do in the event of a poisoning.

Happy International Women's Day!

We would like to echo a message shared by UNAIDS

"On this , let us remember a simple truth: HIV thrives where gender inequality persists...Reform unjust laws, protect services, defend rights, because ending AIDS and building a just world begins with rights, justice and action for every woman and every girl"

Save the date for the annual online Harm Reduction Symposium

This year’s symposium, “It’s Time to Listen,” is about ending stigma and elevate the voices of people with lived experience. We will provide a platform from people who use substances, their families, and those who support them. They will share their struggles, strength, and success stories.

We will highlight voices from Indigenous communities and talk about the need for better in-patient policies to support people in care. We will also share stories that put a human face on this crisis and show how outreach programs are bringing health care to people who face unfair health gaps.

We recognize the people affected by substance use and the workers who help reduce harm and save lives.

Substance use disorder is a health issue—not a moral failure. Laws and health policies must reflect this. Harm reduction should be a top priority for the public, leaders, and health workers. We need better public education, stronger health care training, teamwork across professions, and creative community programs. It’s time to work together and build a more connected and caring system.
You will hear about real programs that reduce stigma and make a difference—from grassroots efforts to team-based care models. These examples show what is possible when harm reduction is at the center of care. Let’s create real change together, where harm reduction is a foundation of care for everyone.

The event is free. Donations are welcome and will go to local harm reduction projects in New Brunswick through Avenue B Inc. The event will offer English and French closed captioning.
