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.
