Harm Reduction, homelessness and making a difference.
On this week’s episode we got the pleasure of chatting with Lindsay Loset. Lindsay works in the non profit world of harm reduction and homeslessness and it is evident she is passionate about her work. She shares why harm reduction is so important in our community, resources for addicts, staggering stats of homelessness and drug use in Grande Prairie and Alberta as a whole. We talk about what we can do as a society to make a difference and the areas our society is seriously lacking. Lindsay also shares how people in this field of work can take care of themselves to prevent burn out.
DISCLAIMER: We do our best to use inclusive and sensitive language however we acknowledge we can always do better. We are learning as go but want to shed light on sensitive topics even if we don’t always get it “right”.
