vi. Does not require abstinence
vii. Reducing secondary harm
-Strategies to address health inequalities and to bring meaningful healthcare to those who might be otherwise marginalized
-Looking at the complex social issues from the root cause
-A commitment to change policy, or integrate into existing health policies
-The term was primarily health related to aid people in not developing secondary health issues from dirty supplies.
=Safe injection sites evolved from this but still had the underlying motive of helping people move towards a healthier lifestyle.
-The other HR process that evolved was replacement therapy. Primarily methadone. This was effective at helping individuals stop opiate use but there wasn’t any focus on helping with the underlying problems.
=Substance use was looked at as the problem.
=There was a lack of understanding that it was a symptom.
-Consequently, the majority of people involved in OAT continued on methadone but used cocaine to try to manage their emotional issues.
=Harm Reduction groups started advocating for more access governments complied because of financial cost, it seemed cheaper than providing treatment but the overall costs to society were not considered.
->Outcome: the majority of HR participants stayed in severe SUD (DSM5)
=There is a small percentage of programs that do work hard to help people move to better wellness but the majority are a mix of OAT programs with little support.
=There is an increasing push for funding safe injection sites as well as safe supply. The safe injection sites and safe use sites are touted as harm reduction but really do not make any effort to help people move out of severe SUD.
=The most recent HR move is toward decriminalization. This is advertised as a solution to the substance abuse problem but again does not incorporate any focus on helping people move toward better wellness.
