Harm Reduction Victoria (HRVic) is a not for profit, community organisation for people who use drugs.HRVic does not condemn nor condone the use of drugs.HRVic merely recognises that drug use happens and as such, aims to reduce any possible harms associated with that drug use. HRVic is a health promotion organisation that is guided by the belief that any drug related harm should be treated as a health issue and not a criminal issue. Our aim is to advance the health and wellbeing of people who use drugs by creating an environment in which individuals are empowered to realise their aspirations, meet their needs and participate fully in society.Our membership, staff and supporters include current and former people who use drugs, their allies and their support networks and people who support the values and objectives of Harm Reduction Victoria. We prioritise the issues and concerns of people who use drugs in all that we do within a community development framework.The philosophy of harm reduction and advancing the health and human rights of people who use drugs guides all of HRVic's work. HRVic's interventions are individually and collectively targeted, in order to promote a culture of safer drug use.
