About Us
Mission: 

Harm Reduction Coalition is a national advocacy and capacity-building organization that promotes the health and dignity of individuals and communities impacted by drug use. Our efforts advance harm reduction policies, practices and programs that address the adverse effects of drug use including overdose, HIV, hepatitis C, addiction, and incarceration. Recognizing that social inequality and injustice magnify drug-related harm and limit the voice of our most vulnerable communities, we work to uphold every individual’s right to health and well-being and their competence to participate in the public policy dialogue.

Programs: 

Founded in 1993, Harm Reduction Coalition is a national capacity building and advocacy organization that promotes the health and dignity of individuals and communities affected by drug use and drug-related policies. Harm Reduction Coalition has served as a national resource, leader, and convener for grassroots and community-based organizations, health departments, and municipal leaders concerned about the impact of drug use in their communities. Harm Reduction Coalition is widely recognized as the leader of capacity building, training, and technical assistance for community-based organizations and government agencies seeking to reduce and eliminate HIV and viral hepatitis transmission and fatal overdoses among people who use drugs.
