Trying to shoot-up correctly, already extremely difficult, is basically impossible when someone is so shaky and restless from dopesickness.

It can help to sniff a tiny bit of it first, just enough to calm the the shakes & keep the hands & needle steady for reducing injury.

PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis) can reduce your ch PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis) can reduce your chance of getting HIV from sex or injection drug use.

Happy #WorldAIDSDay everyone! Here are some graphi Happy #WorldAIDSDay everyone! Here are some graphics detailing what HIV looks like now - and it's definitely nothing to shy away from or be fearful of any longer. HIV is managed better than ever before, with pills or injectable medicines that not only keep folks alive - it keeps them thriving AND prevents transmission! There's also a blurb about Michigan specific data at the end to bring these ideas a little closer home. Educate yourself on HIV today, and if you don't already know your status - we can help!

These are simultaneously true ideas - RP takes bot These are simultaneously true ideas - RP takes both into account & provides life, safety and tools to maintain health/stability for people using substances. Treatment in the form of detox and rehab doesn't solve the overdose crisis on its own. When people still have to navigate poverty, unstable housing, criminalization, returning to unsafe settings, and an unregulated/poisoned drug supply — then treatment caters to the public rather than actually helping address root causes of overdose/fentanyl poisonings. “Well they just need to go to rehab and they’ll be fine.” is a dangerous sentiment when there are so many barriers to maintaining progress when immediately released back into the same environments without the tools and resources to stay healthy and safe. These facilities and programs *are* needed, but we MUST have steps between active use and cessation/recovery to keep folks safer. That’s where #HarmReduction and Red Project step in. For more information please visit redproject.org or call 616.456.9063 to learn more about the resources and programming we offer to alleviate persecution and danger when engaging in substance use. #redprojectgr #grandrapids #grandrapidsmi #harmreduction #kentcounty #harmreductionislove #westmichigan #communitymatters #harmreductionsaveslives #naloxonesaveslives #muskegon #substanceuse #substanceusedisorder #harmreductionworks #narcan #narcansaveslives #naloxone #naloxonesaveslives #rehab #rehabilitation #detox #recovery #recoveryispossible #recoverywarrior #recoveryjourney #recoveryquotes

Welcome to the last day of our long weekend everyb Welcome to the last day of our long weekend everybody - reminder that Red Project will be open at 9am tomorrow! 🌤️ These last few years we’ve seen overdoses and fentanyl poisonings continue to skyrocket - and RP is actively working to save lives and provide better access to tools that keep folks safe. In a time when there are massive amounts of fentanyl tainting the supply of different substances, the resources we provide can alleviate some of the added stressors and dangers of using. This includes #Narcan in both intramuscular injection and nasal spray form to reverse an overdose.

Today is Native American Heritage Day and this mon Today is Native American Heritage Day and this month is #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth. RP acknowledges that we reside on stolen land, colonized by European immigrants starting back in 1621 and that this has had and continues to have a devastating impact on Native cultures and nations that still persevere today. Today celebrates the rich and diverse culture, traditions, and histories in order to acknowledge the important contributions of Native American people to humanity. #redprojectgr #grandrapidsmichigan #grandrapids #grandrapidsmi #harmreduction #nativeamerican #NativeAmericanHeritage #NativeAmericanHeritageDay #nativeamericans #nativeamericanhistory #landacknowledgement #landacknowledgements #stolenland #stolenlands #colonization #nativehistory #nativeheritagemonth #nativepeoples #firstnations #firstnation #indigenousamericans
This week RP will be closed on November 24th and 2 This week RP will be closed on November 24th and 25th to observe Thanksgiving and Black Friday. 🍂🍁 Red Project recognizes that we are standing and living on stolen land - taken with genocide. Here’s an article outlining the damage we do by thoughtlessly celebrating Thanksgiving as a celebration of pilgrims and native Americans being “friends”. It was one dinner in 1621. Then outright genocide until 1924. In the name of white supremacy. Which is also why we deeply recognize the immigrant labor that allows food to come to our tables this week, for many populations are impacted by the everlasting force of colonization in the United States - specifically immigrant populations. If you’re not Native American, you’re the descendant of an immigrant too. We have a long way to go in fully recognizing and celebrating the history and peoples of this country correctly. https://truthout.org/articles/the-future-is-indigenous-decolonizing-thanksgiving/ #redprojectgr #grandrapidsmichigan #grandrapids #grandrapidsmi #harmreduction #grateful #gratefulthankfulblessed #thanksgiving #thanksgiving2022 #thanksgivingturkey #thanksgivingcookies #thanksgivingdinner #thanksgivingmenu #indigenous #indigenouspeople #indigenousrights #indigenousland #indigenouslands #nativeamerican #native #nativeamericanhistory #nativepride #nativeamericans #NativeAmericanHeritage #meltingpot #immigrants #immigrantsmakeamericagreat #immigrantsareessential #immigrantswelcome #colonization

Nov. 20 marks the annual National Transgender Day Nov. 20 marks the annual National Transgender Day of Remembrance. RP stands with the trans community in the face of rising violence. These names represent valuable (reported) trans lives taken this year, a year with record numbers of proposed anti-trans legislation. I’m closing out the weekend reading each of these names and imagining the community-wide impact each individual was stripped of making.

Language matters. Terms like addict and alcoholic Language matters. Terms like addict and alcoholic can absolutely be terms that an individual chooses to use for themselves. However - it is each individuals choice to use a label that began as a stigmatizing one. When an outsider does so, it’s not the same. We bring in untrue and dangerous stigmatizing ideas when we slap a label on someone. Be intentional, and say what you mean. #redprojectgr #grandrapidsmichigan #grandrapids #grandrapidsmi #harmreduction #harmreductionsaveslives #substanceusedisorder #substanceuse #harmreductioncoalition #equalityforall #harmreductionworks #harmreductionislove #harmreductioncoalition #harmreductionheroes #harmreductionwork #substanceusesupport #language #languagematters #stigmafree #breakthestigma
