SUMMARY:Webinar: Beyond Stigma: Harm Reduction & Disability (Special Presentation!)
DESCRIPTION:This presentation is provided in collaboration with Kalamazoo Harm Reduction & Street Medicine Kalamazoo. \n\n\n\nJoin us for a powerful discussion on the connection between Disability and harm reduction. This presentation will explore how stigma\, systemic barriers\, and medical discrimination impact Disabled people. We’ll examine how harm reduction aligns with Disability justice\, why substance use disorder is recognized as a Disability\, and how lack of access to care forces people into dangerous alternatives. Through real-world examples\, interactive discussion\, we’ll highlight the urgent need for autonomy\, equity\, and policy change. Attendees will gain actionable steps to challenge stigma\, advocate for inclusive harm reduction\, and support Disability rights. Let’s work together to create a future where no one is denied the care and dignity they deserve. \n\n\n\nThis event is being offered at the following times: \n\n\n\n\nThursday\, January 22\, 2026 from 2:00 to 4:00 PM — (Click here to register)\n\n\n\nTuesday\, January 27\, 2026 from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM — (Click here to register)\n\n\n\n\nParticipation in this event is available through an internet connection.
