Speaker series on toxic drug crisis wraps March 26 with dialogue among past and present substance users
Join us March 26 at 2 p.m. for a dialogue grounded in resilience, persistence and diversity as past and present substance users share their personal experiences of recovery and wellness – and their insights into how BC’s challenged and patchwork substance-use supports helped and hindered them on that journey.
Harm reduction and recovery advocate Guy Felicella will be joining us for a second time to lead this inspiring and truthful conversation, the final event in Peers Victoria’s speaker series on the toxic drug crisis, “Out of Harm’s Way: Innovation, Insight and Action to End the Toxic Drug Crisis.”
This is going to be a powerhouse afternoon. We’ll be welcoming Sekani Dalketh as our opening keynote, and have confirmed a number of people from Victoria and Vancouver Island to be part of the dialogue led by Guy Felicella.
The event is at First Metropolitan Church sanctuary at 932 Balmoral Ave., with the entrance on Quadra Street. Admission is free – come on down and bring all your friends!
And if you haven’t had a chance to watch our Jan. 29 event, here it is. The Feb. 26 event video will be coming soon.
