Description

There are many different harm reduction strategies in public health, including wearing seatbelts while in a vehicle or wearing a helmet when riding a bike. Public Health Insight’s Hosts assemble for a captivating discussion on one of the more controversial harm reduction strategies, referred to as Safe Consumption Sites (SCS). In this conversation, we explore the history of SCS, political and ideological opposition to the sites, and its overall societal benefits. The United States is behind many developed countries in terms of implementing legal safe consumption sites, do you think it's time for the U.S to have Safe Consumption Sites?Follow us on Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook.
