Distribution of Essential Supplies
We believe that harm reduction can take many forms and that sometimes people overlook a few essentials. For this reason, we distribute free condoms to promote safe sex, earplugs to prevent hearing damage, face masks, hand sanitizer, sunscreen, baby wipes, feminine hygiene products, & so much more at every event we attend! In fact, we often distribute over 20 different harm reduction essentials. We also freely distribute water, snacks (yes, we even have some vegan-friendly options too), & hot coffee (when available).

Caring Well-Trained Volunteers
With close to 2,000 volunteer applications in the last year, we've been able to build out each team with only top-quality candidates to donate their time to promote health & awareness in our communities at events with us. Not only do our volunteers share our passion and mission but they're well-trained. Before working any event with us our volunteers are required to complete several of our in-house training courses prior to working in-person events with Harm Reduction Circle.
