The dual public health emergencies of the overdose crisis and the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic have greatly affected the most marginalized in our communities. This has heightened the need for community-driven, low-barrier harm reduction programs embedded in communities to reach these individuals.
 
This webinar highlights novel, low-barrier approaches to harm reduction programs, how these programs are being delivered, and the lessons that have been learned. We will discuss opportunities and challenges for harm reduction practice during the pandemic and into the future as restrictions begin to ease
