​Harm reduction is an impactful approach to empower people who use drugs (and their families) to live self-directed and healthy lives. In this episode, we speak with pharmacist Emmeline Paintsil, who delves into her team's innovative academic detailing project focused on harm reduction. Join us as we explore the impact of providing nonjudgmental care, building trust with patients, and advocating for harm reduction strategies. Click here for the audio transcription. 

​"We all have a role, especially as pharmacy professionals, in the success of harm reduction initiatives because discrimination, stigma, [and] lack of knowledge of how quickly this landscape is changing should not impact a patient's access to harm reduction strategies."
