Hep C 101 | Harm Reduction with Guest Jessica Lamb
In this episode, we talk harm reduction as it relates to people who use drugs with Jessica Lamb, a peer worker based in Kimberley, BC. What is harm reduction? How do peers provide support in terms of harm reduction? Where can people find resources, services, and supplies--and how might that look different in the context of COVID-19? Daryl and Kerri from Pacific Hep C discuss these things, and more, with Jess.
Have questions about hep C prevention, or hep C in general? Reach out to a peer who gets it at Help4Hep BC. Call or text 1-888-411-7578
