We are a registered Canadian non-profit organization dedicated to transforming substance use healthcare through peer-driven strategic advocacy and innovation. Our mission is to ensure that everyone, regardless of their drug use, has access to options of safe, effective, and dignified healthcare. We value harm-reduction, meaningful engagement with knowledge Keepers, the decolonization of substance use healthcare and decolonizing the current drug policies.
The J Healthcare Initiative has emerged as a powerful force in reforming substance use healthcare, balancing global advocacy with local action. We've successfully pushed for harm reduction in international drug policy, while also providing practical support through free smokable and injectable harm reduction supplies to youths who use drugs. Our partnerships with a few Canadian universities, offering paid internship and practicum placement for undergraduate and graduate student enable us to create the next generation of healthcare providers who understand the context of our toxic drug crisis. From presenting at international conferences to co-signing progressive drug policy manifestos, we're driving meaningful change in how society approaches substance use, keeping the well-being of individuals at the forefront of our mission.
