"[Harm Reduction Coalition Aotearoa] believes that endless amendments to an unworkable law are not the solution. It is time to replace drug laws with a single, coherent Psychoactive Drug Law—one that regulates all drugs, including currently legal substances, such as alcohol. A modern drug law grounded in science, evidence, and human rights, promoting health education and harm reduction under the administration of the Ministry of Health."

#BHN folks who watched/ listened to last night’s show might be interested in this podcast about the medically supervised injecting room in Melbourne.

This is one of the ways treating drug use as a health issue vs a criminal issue can look. It can sound scary to some people, & that’s ok.

What matters is that it saves lives.
