Harm reduction strategies to tackle the fentanyl crisis

In this episode, host Vanda Felbab-Brown discusses the benefits and limitations of harm reduction approaches with experts Regina LaBelle and David Holtgrave, who discuss a wide scope of harm reduction measures, including naloxone provision, overdose prevention centers, and the importance and efficacy of client-centered and community-centered approaches. Felbab-Brown, LaBelle, and Holtgrave also explore the legal barriers and stigma that pose challenges to adopting these strategies in the United States.
The policy papers produced for the “Fentanyl Epidemic in North America and the Global Reach of Synthetic Opioids” series will be released starting in November 2024.
