Alcohol and Other Drugs Harm Reduction Group

This weekly group acknowledges that different goals work for different people. With the support of the group, you can work on finding the right balance for yourself, to get what you want from your substance use choices, without the things you don’t want.

Please note this group has two different weekly sessions you can sign up for.
