HARM REDUCTION
THERAPEUTIC ACTIVITIES
As a way of reducing harm Bloodwood Tree
Association has come up with practical strategies
intended to reduce the negative consequences of
high risk behaviours such as over drinking alcohol
or drug use. This is a non-judgemental approach
and Bloodwood Tree Association’s counsellors
are attempting to meet people where they are at
with their drinking and drug use. Instead of total
abstinence the counsellors support the individuals
to minimise the harms caused by drug and
alcohol abuse by providing a variety of activities
like cooking, artwork, music and dance, watching
DVD, storytelling, gardening and sometimes
just yarning in a friendly environment and each
activity is concluded by a healthy meal.
