Drop in breakfast with jewellery making

COUNTERfit Women’s Harm Reduction Program

The Women’s Harm Reduction Program is a trans-inclusive, sex-work positive program for all women who use drugs.

The program arose from a recognized community need for specialized, trauma-informed, community building support for women who use drugs, to provide:

  • a safe space for open discussion
  • a foundation to build communities of support
  • access to health care
  • engagement in harm reduction education
  • employment and training opportunities

Weekly programs may include:

  • candle making
  • photography
  • tie-dye
  • educational speakers (Hep C Nurse, Women’s Health in Women’s Hands, etc)

The main access point for new members is through the Women’s Harm Reduction Drop-In which takes place every Tuesday morning from 9:30- 11:30a.m. The group comes together to enjoy a light breakfast, group based activities, education, and discussion groups. Group participants also have the opportunity to access health care via a nurse practitioner and a client care coordinator to provide wrap-around clinical and mental health supports.

There is no registration required and the drop-in is open to cis and trans women, 2Spirit, and non-binary folks who use drugs and/or have experience with sex work.
