OCHE Community Office Hours – Holiday Harm Reduction
December 21 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm EST

Join the MA Bureau of Substance Addiction Services (BSAS) Office of Community Health & Equity (OCHE) for Community Office Hours: Holiday Harm Reduction
The holidays can bring joy and connection, but they can also intensify grief, loneliness, family conflict, financial stress, substance use risks, and feelings of exclusion. This office hours session offers a compassionate space to explore practical ways to care for ourselves and others without judgment, coercion or unrealistic expectations.
Following a successful dialogue format in September, on December 21 from 10 am – 12 pm we’re excited to spotlight our newest team member’s expertise. We invite community partners into a conversation about how harm reduction can be crucial during the holiday season as we navigate a time that can bring both joy and connection, as well as complicated emotions and experiences.
