Psychedelic Harm Reduction: Preparation, Support, and Community Safety
Details
Join us for an interactive virtual workshop exploring psychedelic harm reduction through the lens of peer support and community safety.
Together, we’ll discuss:
- What psychedelics and dissociatives are, and why people use them,
- What can shape safer or more challenging experiences, and,
- How peers and community members can offer grounded, consent-based support before, during, and after use.
This session will include discussion, reflection, and case scenarios to practice applying harm reduction principles in real-world situations. We’ll focus on accessible, nonjudgmental approaches that recognize both the potential meaning people may find in psychedelic experiences and the real risks that can arise.
This workshop is open to community members, peer supporters, harm reduction workers, mental health professionals, people with lived experience, and anyone interested in compassionate approaches to psychedelic safety. No prior knowledge is required.
