Welcome to week four
Welcome to the final week of this course!
In week three we explored five models of addiction: moral, disease, psychological, socio-cultural and biopsychosocial.
This week, we will take a look at some of the well-established, evidence-based harm reduction interventions for various drugs.
The concept of harm reduction can be hard to grasp, so we urge you to start this week with an open mind. The strategies associated with this concept often seem contradictory to our legal system. Yes, as you are about to discover, many of these are very effective at reducing harm to individuals and their communities.
We hope you find this week really interesting.
