Safe injection sites save lives. Important conversations happening this week at Getting to Tomorrow: Ending the Overdose Crisis. Get your sign to support safe injection sites from @SIS_Hamilton. cbc.ca/news/canada/hamilton/…

Beat opioid crisis with safe drugs and places to use them, says forum | CBC News

If we want fewer overdose deaths in Hamilton, drug users need access to a safe supply of drugs and more places to consume them, local health-care and harm-reduction workers say.

Current drug policies have failed ppl who use drugs. We cannot help ppl when they are dead. A safe supply of drugs, a safe space to use drugs, & decriminalization of drugs are evidence-based and evidence-informed solutions. – at Hamilton, Ontario
