Substance Use Treatment - Harm Reduction Model

At ISBH, we follow a harm reduction model in our approach to substance use treatment and support services. We believe that this approach is the most effective way to minimize the negative consequences and harm that may result from substance use, and to support individuals who may be struggling with addiction or other challenges. Our harm reduction programs are designed to provide support, resources, and education to people without judgment or condemnation. We believe that this approach promotes a sense of dignity and respect for all individuals and helps to create a more inclusive and compassionate community.
