Harm Reduction

The Counselling Centre of East Algoma offers Harm Reduction every

MONDAY, WEDNESDAY & FRIDAY* from 1 to 2:30 p.m.

Harm reduction is about meeting people where they are, not where we think they should be. It’s about understanding that addiction and substance use are complex issues, not moral failings. By providing support, education, and resources, we create a safer environment for everyone.

*If you can not access the Counselling Centre of East Algoma during these hours, please visit Algoma Public health (located 3rd floor of the ELNOS building), 31 Nova Scotia Walk, Suite 302., between 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
