SOCIAL JUSTICE AND HUMAN RIGHTS

“It has been shown throughout history that if 3.5% of the general public stand up against

social injustice and move for positive change then it will indeed happen….the last hundred years provide the evidence,

sadly this is not the age for evidence based policy and therefore we need to stand taller

and shout louder, but change will indeed come”

NO ACTION = PART OF THE NO ACTION = PART OF THE PROBLEMPROBLEM

“INACTION IS A WEAPON OF

MASS DESTRUCTION”

Maxi Jazz

To hold onto knowledge that you are given freely is paramount to negligence if that knowledge has the potential to reduce the risks and harms to another human

being. My conscience is clear....is yours?

WHAT IS YOUR ROLE?WHAT IS YOUR ROLE? To reduce the harms and risks to whole communities by raising the

awareness of public health issues faced by people who use substances, looking at productive and positive cost effective solutions to the harms and risks to whole communities.

To provide a platform for mutual aid support based on effective programs and past experience that has proven to promote the health and safety of all involved. A place where identity and a like-minded train of thought promotes unity and progress in the interests of all involved.

To support others with similar issues or a vested interest in the care and support of those within the community by consulting and advocating at all levels on a global scale to increase the understanding of the risks and harms that may come with substance use on both individuals and whole communities.
