Overdose is now the leading cause of death for people under 55 in the United States, with death rates steadily increasing year after year in most of the country.
In this 2 hour session, we’ll explore the systems and circumstances that put people who use drugs at risk for overdose; the barriers, challenges, and discrimination they face in accessing resources to prevent overdose; and how harm reduction seeks to honor the autonomy of people who use drugs by putting power to save lives and minimize harm in their hands.
