Several people told me they didn’t realize my recent post had slides (carousel)… Given the foundational data it included, i wanted more people to have an opportunity to see. Because (spoiler alert) that has a lot do with where this research has lead. And so we lead with measurable nuancequences…

Bridging the gap between harm reduction and HIV care!🙌

The Susan Terry Foundation is proud to award a $25,000 grant to the Florida Harm Reduction Collective to support its groundbreaking EPIC-IDEA program, which helps connect some of our community’s most vulnerable residents to HIV testing, treatment and care.

This incredible team works every day to meet people where they are, build trust, and remove barriers to lifesaving services.

Their commitment reflects the very values that Susan Terry championed throughout her life: compassion, innovation and the belief that everyone deserves access to care and hope.

We are honored to invest in their work and excited to see the impact this partnership will have across the Tampa Bay region.

Congratulations to the entire FHRC team!

Today, we remember the people we’ve lost to overdose & we fight like for the ones who are still here.

At Reduce Harm, we believe every life is worth saving. Every person deserves dignity, compassion, resources & the tools to stay alive.

Carry naloxone.
Learn how to use it.
Share it freely.
Check on your people.

And never forget: PEOPLE WHO USE DRUGS DESERVE TO LIVE.

Remembering them means protecting each other.

Harm Reduction Facts People Don't Like Hearing.

Some of these statements shouldn't be controversial, but they still are.

People who use drugs are not disposable.
Naloxone doesn't cause substance use.
Harm reduction doesn't require abstinence.
Recovery and harm reduction can exist together.
Healthcare should not be conditional on sobriety.
And keeping someone alive is always worth doing.

People with lived experience aren't just “people who need help.” They are educators, advocates, caregivers, neighbours, friends, workers, volunteers, and lifesavers.

We don't have to agree with someone's choices to believe they deserve to survive them.

Harm reduction isn't about approving of drug use. It's about recognizing reality, reducing preventable harm, and keeping people alive.

And sometimes, the facts make people uncomfortable because they challenge the assumptions we've been taught.

But discomfort isn't a reason to ignore evidence.

People deserve dignity before, during, and after substance use.
People deserve healthcare without having to prove they are “worthy” of it.
People deserve support without having to earn compassion.
And people deserve to be alive.

That shouldn't be a radical statement.

Harm reduction is healthcare.
Harm reduction is dignity.
Harm reduction is community care.
Harm reduction is keeping people alive. 💚

One year ago, the Susan Terry Foundation was established with a simple yet powerful purpose: to ensure that a life rooted in compassion would continue changing lives for generations to come.

Today, as we celebrate this milestone, we honor Susan Terry’s extraordinary legacy and the lasting impact it continues to have on individuals, families, and communities. Through every act of generosity, every partnership, and every life touched, her spirit of compassion lives on.

Thank you to everyone who has supported the Foundation over the past year. Your generosity and belief in this mission are helping create a healthier, more hopeful future for those who need it most. Here’s to one incredible year and to the many lives we’ll continue to change together. ❤️

NHRC’s National Program Coordinator, Harmony Seaburg, Tobacco Harm Reduction Education and Engagement (THREE) Project Manager, Gaby Zabala Alemán, and National Director of Capacity Building and Engagement, Tanagra Melgarejo Pulido, attended the Florida Harm Reduction Conference in St. Petersburg, Florida, where they learned about initiatives in the south and Florida in particular. The group also learned more about the history of mutual aid and collective action in the region. Gaby presented on key findings from a qualitative research report examining how THR practices are — or are not — integrated into SSPs, Recovery Community Organizations (RCOs), and Outpatient Treatment Programs (OTPs). The objectives are threefold: To highlight the current landscape of THR implementation across these settings, identify barriers and promising practices, and outline actionable recommendations for enhancing THR within broader harm reduction and recovery support services.
