24.01.2022 Cahma I would like to sincerely thank you for providing me with training and NALOXONE to save individuals lives. I have lost count on the number of occasions I ...have used these life saving drugs you have provided me with free of charge. I have been able to use NALOXONE numerous times to save many lives, including my family using NALOXONE to save my own life. I am so eternally grateful for your service to not only me but the wider Canberra community. Thank you both Dave n Marisa for the training, without your endless campaigning n dedication to our community many members would no longer be here. The service you provide including the support is so very much appreciated. Thank you so very much Im not sure if you understand how important your service is and how grateful many parents including my own are for saving the lives of their loved child or children. See more

15.01.2022 This Tuesday on News From The Drug War Front had the privilege to interview Kerrie Mckenzie from Hepatitis ACT. Kerrie has been at Hepatitis ACT for the past 10 years and she still loves it! She works throughout the community as a peer educator, teaching the ins and outs of testing, treatment and vaccination. She is also a vital advocate for stopping the stigmatization that comes with a Hep positive result. In celebration of CAHMA and Hepatitis ACT working closer together in the future we thought that posting her interview (with her permission) would be a great way to introduce her to the family. https://soundcloud.com/nftdwfsupportdownpuni/kerryhepatitis
