The Breakdown - Episode 2.32 -Zoe Lambert (Addiction, Harm Reduction & Supervised Consumption Sites)

With Jason Kenney waging an ideological war on addiction and addiction treatment methodologies as well as shutting down a supervised consumption site in one of the areas of Alberta that needs it most, we wanted to have a conversation on what addiction is and how it can potentially be managed, including the role that harm reduction services like Supervised Consumption Sites should play. Fortunately, we were able to catch up with addiction and harm reduction advocate Zoe Lambert. Not only does Zoe have real lived experience with addiction and helping others navigate it, but she currently runs a mental health coaching service called Abscission Wellness while Zoe is pursuing her masters in counselling and it’s a chat you don’t want to miss!
