Millennium Fellowship Project: Harm Reduction Expansion Project
My project is to expand harm reduction education when it comes to how to access and use narcan and fentanyl testing strips. Additionally, with this education, my project aims to create more open dialogue with the idea of harm reduction by holding workshops and partnering with community resources.
