Alcohol & Drugs
We're here to help LGBTQ+ people reduce harm associated with the use of alcohol and other drugs by providing linkage to a range of relevant supportive services.
We work with our clients in a supportive and non-judgmental way, whether their interest is to get support to reduce or stop use, to be able to use in a safer manner or become more informed about drug use.
