@roni_kgg @Carleton_U Carleton Harm Reduction has been working on making naloxone more accessible on campus, although it has been difficult to do. We are pushing for this though!

Today on our IG Live we talked about how to navigate substance use in a University setting. Students are commonly exposed to various substances as part of the 'University culture', and it is important to know how to minimize the risk of harm if you engage in substance use.

We want to see how you #CarryNaloxone! We’re launching a social media campaign to raise awareness for how, when, where, and why people carry Naloxone.

While this is incredibly prevalent in a University setting, it can also be applicable in numerous other settings as well. Find out more about how to navigate substance use in a university setting on our IGTV → https://t.co/MTDWGprrzp #NAAW #StigmaEndsAtCU #ChangeBeingsWithMe

[Stigma Ends At CU @StigmaEndsAtCU]

Another unique aspect of substance use in University, is that there is often stigma around both using substances and not using substances, and students struggle with remaining autonomous as they navigate this stigma. #StigmaEndsWithMe #StigmaEndsAtCU #NAAW

[Stigma Ends At CU @StigmaEndsAtCU]

It can also be easy to normalize substance use as part of the 'University culture'. However, some people choose not to use substances and it is important to respect that choice, without pressure or questions. This is one way to reduce the stigma surrounding not using substances.
