Alcohol and Other Drug Harm Reduction

Undergraduate & Graduate Students

We will build a community that offers support and strategies for healing. We welcome people from all diagnosed illness, repeating episodes of health problems, or chronic medical conditions. Each person holds unique, personal experiences in their situation. We explore how to reduce the impact of health traumas that affect our daily routines. We will use coping practices, mindfulness, and each other's knowledge.
