HARM REDUCTION

Co-Chair:  Jess Fear, Health District of Northern Larimer County

Co-Chair:  Chris Stock, PharmD

The Harm Reduction work group (formerly the Naloxone work group) advocates for the health, wellbeing, rights, and dignity of people who use substances by supporting organizational, clinical and public policy approaches/strategies that have the potential to save lives and reduce potential harms of substance use. The work group focuses on supporting harm reduction services throughout Colorado, including overdose awareness and broad access to naloxone, broad access to safe injection supplies and facilities, HIV and hepatitis C testing and linkage to care, and harm reduction-based criminal justice reforms.

The Harm Reduction Work Group meets every month (in person and by remote conferencing). The current work group roster, most recent meeting minutes, and upcoming meeting schedule are available on the left-hand side of this page.
