Latinx HAP ONLY: 04.02.2024 10 am – 12 pm TA Training: Foundations of Harm Reduction
Tuesday, April 2nd, 2024, from 10 am – 12 pm
Training Overview:
This training will provide health and human service providers
with a comprehensive overview of Harm Reduction. This approach incorporates a practical set of strategies designed to prevent disease and promote health by “meeting people where they are” rather than making judgments about where they should be in terms of their personal health and lifestyle. Recognizing that not
everyone is ready or able to stop risky behavior, harm reduction focuses on promoting ways to reduce the health risks associated with drug use and other high risk behaviors. This course will assist providers in more effectively engaging their clients in a range of interventions to reduce the risk of harm.
