SUMMARY:Celebration of Life: HARM REDUCTION WORKERS EDITION
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nAn opportunity for city harm reductionist in any capacity to take a moment to create community outside of work hours.\n\n\n\nThis year for International Overdose Awareness Day lets come together as fellow harm reductionists and practice community care. No serious work talk\, no expectations for networking as if you’re on the clock\, just a moment in time to see one another as human beings who share at least one thing in common– the love for people who use drugs. \nWe observe this day in order to honor those we have lost to overdose\, but we can also celebrate them as well as those who are still with us. We’ll do so with a night of snacks\, drinks and an opportunity to leave serious work talk behind in order to create community with others who understand the work we do. \nThere will be a “getting to know you” bingo with the prize of talking to people you dont already know. There will also be a phone that records messages with two prompts \n\nTell us a fun story or favorite memory about someone you’ve lost to overdose\nHow does harm reduction fit into Recovery Month?\n\nSee you there!! \nBrought to you by Baltimore Harm Reduction Coalition and Harm Reduction Happy Hour
