We are a Camosun College/ UVic collective aimed at being an agency of education for HARM REDUCTION in Victoria and abroad. Our focus is on mobilizing the student body as a core advocacy group for harm reduction. We hope to break down stereotypes and "us" and "them" complexes, as well as educate our campuses about the current state of our needle exchange, housing situation, and health care for marginilized populations in Victoria.
We believe that harm reduction and access to safe housing, needles, pipes, and other paraphernalia is a basic health care provision, and that Victoria is failing in this area, therefore violating a people's right to equal and accesible health care.
This blog will act a medium of communication and discussion about harm reduction, and associated topics. Resources and relevant material will be posted on this web network, inorder to educate and involve Victorian's in their community, and the importance of harm reduction as a health care provision.
