A Human Approach to Harm Reduction
Episode 3
Thursday, 6 October, 2022
Dr. Orisha “Dr. O.” Bowers led the charge for many people in the Memphis area to become involved in HIV advocacy and is a spiritual mother to many. Now, she’s focused on harm reduction and teaches us how to focus this work on humanity and meet people where they are. Dr. O. is the executive director of the National Harm Reduction Coalition. When Dr. O. stepped into HIV and harm reduction work, she didn’t know much about the virus. But as she walked alongside people in the community, she learned how to meet people heart-to-heart. Dr. O. shares how she now fights for young people and the people who don’t have a voice. Marvell and Dr. O. talk about what it takes to do true harm reduction work, how to coach people to help them find answers, and bring them with you on the path to liberation.
