What To Do When Addicts Can’t Stop Using

Theo Motzenbacker, Outreach Health Educator with AADAP Health Intervention Program (HIP) mentions that harm reduction is “baked into our lives”. People take risks all the time and we find ways to mitigate them. For instance, riding in a car gives one the risk of car accidents, so, wearing seatbelts is a form of harm reduction. Should one choose to drink at a bar one night and go home with a designated driver is a harm reduction practice. Join us in a conversation as he dispassionately explains harm reduction strategies when dealing with the reality that there are people who use drugs and not everyone is ready to take the step towards sobriety and some people will never be.
