Seneca Polytechnic and CAYR Community Connections invite you to join us for a transformative community outreach and education event aimed at raising awareness about harm reduction strategies during National Addictions Awareness Week (NAAW).

This FREE online seminar will feature engaging presentations from guest speakers including public health practitioners and community members with lived experience of substance use.

Through an open dialogue and Q&A, participants will have the opportunity to deepen their understanding of harm reduction strategies and how they can help end stigma surrounding substance use.

National Addictions Awareness Week (NAAW) seeks to raise awareness about challenges and solutions related to substance use including prevention, harm reduction, treatment, and recovery. This year, NAAW will be held from November 24 to November 30, 2024 promoting the theme "Forging Connections" to emphasize the importance of building partnerships and collaborative efforts to address substance use challenges across Canada.
