In Canada, alcohol is legal & we have a safe supply of booze. So why do some people drink mouthwash? And why does the state over-police poor people for public drinking?
In our new episode we investigate with @VANDUpeople's Illicit Drinkers Group (EIDGE).crackdownpod.com/episodes/ep…

You'll learn about alcohol-specific harm reduction, the history of alcohol policy in the DTES & how the illicit drinkers community has kept themselves safe from @VANDUpeople's Herb Varley, John Onland, Brittany Graham, @Aaron_R_Bailey and Professor @BerniePauly.
ALT Twenty members of EIDGE meet in Oppenheimer Park. They smile at the camera while sitting on benches and standing around a big white pad.

Inspired by Bill 34 struggles, the membership of our Eastside Illicit Drinkers Group for Education (EIDGE) has been working on telling our own stories as tools for policy change.
The EIDGE leadership is excited to share its new zine, which we hope will do just that. (2/3)

Amazing!!! We are building our CMAP program currently, and are hoping to include cannabis as harm reduction for alcohol use ❤️

Our experience demonstrates that the lived expertise of drinkers can play an integral role in creating alcohol harm reduction materials, specifically those related to cannabis substitution, when combined with data from rigorous, community-based programs of research. (3/3)

In this essay, we draw on over 10-years of collaboration between CMAPS, and organizations of people with lived experience to describe our experiences co-creating cannabis education resources where none existed to support MAP sites piloting cannabis. (2/3)

One of the best medications we have for alcohol harm reduction is naltrexone.
It helps drinkers to cut down on heavy drinking, whether they have alcohol use disorders or not.
I believe it is such an under-utilized tool in our fight to reduce alcohol-related harms.
