THE PENNSYLVANIA HARM REDUCTION COALITION (PAHRC) IS A COLLABORATION BETWEEN VARIOUS ORGANIZATIONS INCLUDING TREATMENT PROVIDERS, HARM REDUCTION PROGRAMS, MEDICAL ENTITIES, SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCIES, ACADEMIA, CRIMINAL JUSTICE REFORM PROJECTS, ACTIVISTS, AND ORDINARY PEOPLE.

The mission of PAHRC is to promote the health, dignity, and human rights of individuals who use drugs and communities impacted by drug use. Recognizing that social inequity, criminalization, and stigma silence those affected most, we advocate for policies that improve the quality of life for people who use drugs, people in recovery, and their communities.

PAHRC is dedicated to advocating for, and with, individuals who are currently using substances to receive competent care and comprehensive services.
