London Cares and Regional HIV/AIDS Connection (RHAC) are partnering with PTAC to offer an essential Harm Reduction 101 workshop — a compassionate and practical training for anyone looking to better understand substance use and how to support others with care and dignity.

What you'll learn:
✔️ A compassionate approach to understanding substance use
✔️ Common substances in the London area and how they’re used
✔️ Harm reduction strategies in practice
✔️ De-escalation tips
✔️ Safe disposal of harm reduction supplies
✔️ Overdose response training
✔️ Where to turn for support and resources

Facilitated by Lily Bialas, Manager of Counterpoint at RHAC and Sam Armstrong, Flex Manager at London Cares. Both bring years of experience in frontline social service and believe everyone deserves access to compassionate care.

Let’s build a more informed and supportive community, together.
