HDC Beyond Harm Reduction

In the heart of Santa Clara County, HDC's Beyond Harm Reduction stands as a unique force, the only drug user-run advocacy group in the area. We amplify the voices of drug users, sex workers, and the unhoused, transforming stigmas into strength. Our mission: to empower the marginalized to lead in their healthcare decisions and fulfill their potential. We’re rewriting the narrative of wellness, building meaningful connections, and igniting self-empowerment to foster true community change.
