Harm Reduction Communication provides a forum for the exchange of practical, "hands on" harm reduction techniques and information; promotes open discussion of theoretical and political issues of importance to harm reduction and the movement; and informs the community through resource listings and announcements of relevant events. Harm Reduction Communication is committed to presenting the views and opinions of drug users, drug substitution therapy consumers, former users and people in recovery, outreach and front-line workers, and others whose voices have traditionally been ignored, and to exploring harm reduction issues in the unique and complicated context of American life. Since a large part of harm reduction is about casting a critical eye toward the thoughts, feelings, and language we have learned to have and use about drugs and drug users, Harm Reduction Communication assumes that contributors choose their words as carefully as we would. Therefore, we do not change "addict" to "user" and so forth unless we feel that the author truly meant to use a different word, and contributors always have last say. The views of contributors to Harm Reduction Communication do not necessarily reflect those of the editorial staff or of the Harm Reduction Coalition. Any part of this publication may be freely reproduced as long as HRC is credited. Please write in your comments, feelings, responses-we want to hear from you. If you would like to submit an article, or photos or artwork, we would be happy to look at your material. (See our submission page for submission guidelines.) HRC gives a voice to communities that are ignored by conventional media: drug users, people of color, individuals who are HIV or Hepatitis C positive, and sexual minorities. If you have never written something for publication, assistance is available: just ask for it. (You can call the editor at 212 213 6376, or include a note with your submission.)
