Are you ready to make a difference in the world of music festivals? Join us for "Amplify Awareness", a groundbreaking silent auction that is taking the stage to support harm reduction initiatives at music festivals by Harm Reduction Circle.
About the Event: "Amplify Awareness" isn't just an auction; it's a movement that echoes through the heart of our mission. We're focused on creating an environment of heightened safety and consciousness at music festivals, weaving together joy, connection, and responsibility. Music festivals should be spaces where individuality thrives, and Harm Reduction Circle is committed to ensuring that they're also spaces of safeguarding and enlightenment.
Our Mission: At Harm Reduction Circle, our dedication is unwavering – we're here to diminish drug-related harm and foster the well-being of those who use drugs, particularly those often overlooked by society. Our mission champions a culture of harm reduction that places health and welfare at its core, irrespective of one's background. Our practical and compassionate approach is a pivotal aspect of public health, as we strive to construct a world that's safer and more just.
Why Harm Reduction Matters: Music festivals are incredible gatherings that bring people together from all walks of life, and they're fueled by the energy of music, camaraderie, and celebration. However, amidst the excitement, it's crucial to acknowledge and address potential risks. Harm reduction is the key. It's about taking proactive steps to minimize harm and maximize safety, ensuring that everyone can enjoy the festival to the fullest.
How You Can Make a Difference: By participating in "Amplify Awareness," you're becoming an advocate for change. Your bids and contributions will directly support vital harm reduction initiatives, including:
Education and Outreach: Spreading awareness about safe partying practices, responsible substance use, and recognizing the signs of potential overdose.
Naloxone Distribution: Providing festival staff and attendees with Naloxone, a lifesaving medication that can reverse the effects of opioid overdoses. We offer guests 10-minute one-on-one Narcan Training Sessions. Participants receive a Naloxone Administration Training Certificate and Narcan to take home.
Peer-to-Peer Education: Our visual materials encompass over 15 harm reduction topics, engaging guests through insightful brochures and flyers. Drug Checking: In partnership with DoseTest & WiseBatch, we provide substance testing using reagent kits, ensuring accurate results for approximately 100 different substances within minutes. This includes using Fentanyl Testing Strips.
Safe Spaces: Creating designated areas where attendees can receive support, information, and medical assistance if needed.
Distribution of Essential Supplies: We distribute over 20 harm reduction essentials, including condoms, earplugs, face masks, hand sanitizer, sunscreen, and more. Free water, snacks, and hot coffee are also available.
