Modern-day harm reduction has been shaped by Black women throughout history who improve the lives & safety of Black communities and people who use drugs (PWUD). The world of harm reduction wouldn’t be the same without the leadership, commitment & compassion of these incredible harm reductionists.

Today we recognize #IOAD by remembering those we have lost, those who remember them, those who have come back, and those who dedicate their lives to ending overdose. No matter where you fall, we send you love. We are proud to stand alongside this community in the fight to save lives compassionately.

Here’s what you can expect when you open a twin pack of RiVive 3 mg naloxone nasal spray. You’ll notice it’s very similar to other naloxone nasal sprays, making it easy and familiar to use in an emergency overdose situation. Share this with someone who hasn’t heard of RiVive yet!🙌

Harm reductionist and friend of HRT Van Asher took a moment to talk about how he sees HRT.🤍 We aim to be a people-over-profit organization every single day. After all, people need to be saved, not profits. Thanks for your words, Van. 💪

One of HRT’s goals is to reduce the avoidance of naloxone. We believe that by making a compassionate dose that reduces the risk & intensity of precipitated withdrawal, people will be less likely to avoid naloxone or to use drugs alone. (cont. in comments)

Words can hurt, but they can also heal.❤️‍🩹 In harm reduction, the language that reduces stigma matters. Compassionate dosing and compassionate communication go hand in hand.

We’re so glad carrying naloxone is becoming more normalized, BUT we want to emphasize the importance of rescue breathing during an overdose too. After you administer that first dose of RiVive 3 mg, rescue breathing is important to supply oxygen to the brain of the person you are reviving.

People-first & people-focused is our approach for gathering data at HRT. As part of our 2025 Community Feedback Report, we asked folks with firsthand experience receiving and/or administering RiVive to tell us if it worked the way it’s intended. Read the full report on our website.

Originally coined by scholar & civil rights advocate Kimberlé Crenshaw, the term “intersectionality” carries even more weight when paired with the experiences of people who use drugs (cont).

When naloxone blocks the opioid from reaching the receptors in the brain, breathing is restored, the overdose is reversed, and a life is saved. But this is often a really difficult experience for the person who overdosed, especially when too high a dose of naloxone is used. (cont. in comments)

Great to join Bike to Work Day and see so many Calgarians out riding. People should have the freedom to choose how they get around, whether that’s driving, transit, walking, or biking. Safe streets for our kids and families make every option work better.

Hopefully this is not just wishful thinking on my part.

Criticizing Israel is not tolerated in the UK apparently and it’s not tolerated in America either. He made the mistake of saying that Israel controls the United States. And… 🧐 Meanwhile, in America. They’re going to try and pass a bill in the House that combines the Israeli and US militaries. ⬇️
