This presentation was created in collaboration with Youth RISE (with special thanks to Murtaza Mageed, Afghanistan) for the 2011 Spring TRIP! training. It includes information on harm reduction and drug use, as applied to the rave scene. The presentation also should include a safer consumption demonstration, as well as Forum Theatre activities performed in groups in order to stimulate outreach settings and critical dialog among volunteers.

An enforcer I aint!Harm reduction has become a bastardized word in our society!Harm reduction, in a sense, takes many forms. To me, prevention is harm reduction. Treatment is harm reduction. Enforcement is harm reduction. Tony Clement

Safer Consumption
Safer InjectionPeople who inject drugs are at much greater risk of HIV/Hep Ctransmission. As a result, many health departments have set up programs to increase safe disposal of used works (needles and crack pipes) and distribute clean items to those who are in need.Canadas only safe injection site, Insite, currently runs in Vancouver.
Injection and StigmaThere are many risks associated with injection drug useImportant to not judge users and focus on providing life saving information
Fuck safe, shoot clean!Sharp Shooters is a safer injection handbook put out by Central Toronto Community Health Centres and Counterfit at South Riverdale Community Health CentreWehave brought one for everyone! Yay!
Harm Reduction @ RavesGreat Britain responded to the health risks posed by raves byattempting to prohibit them. Rave organizers faced fines ofup to 20,000 pounds and 6 months in prison, and police wereallowed to remove vehicles and sound equipment from any raveevent. These measures seemed to fail because the parties simplymoved into legitimate clubs, and this increased the risks involvedwith mixing drugs and alcohol. A recent UK survey of 16- to29-year-olds showed that 9% of respondents had used ecstasy;this rose to 91% among members of the dance-club scene.43
Harm Reduction @ RavesAn alternative is to encourage harm reduction by ensuring thatbuildings meet safety and health standards, adequate securityis provided to accommodate the large number of attendees andeducation about health effects is available from trainedvolunteers (YOU GUYS!) and from pamphlets and information cards.Such initiatives have been adopted by the ravecommunity and municipal and public health authorities and are being considered by some provincial regulatory authorities.
