We’re pleased to announce an open call for proposals under the Harm Reduction Fund, which will invest $30 million over 5 years to help support front-line community-based programs that seek to reduce substance abuse, HIV and hepatitis C infections among individuals who share injection and inhalation drug-use equipment.

If chosen, successful projects will receive funding for 2 years to help them implement evidence-based interventions, such as the development of educational resources for people who use drugs, peer outreach initiatives, and training for health service providers.

If you and/or your organization think that you could make a difference here in Dartmouth-Cole Harbour, then make sure to follow the application process listed at https://www.canada.ca/…/funding-op…/harm-reduction-fund.html.

The deadline is Friday, July 13th so make sure to act fast!
