Today is International Sex Workers’ Day. ISWD is held to mark the 1975 occupation of Saint-Nizier Church by around 100 sex workers, protesting their criminalised & exploitative living conditions. Sex workers continue to mark the day by calling for fulfilment of their rights.
A colourful illustration of three figures around a central placard that reads "international sex workers day, 2 June". The two figures at the front are black women and one has her fist raised to the sky in protest. The figure behind the placard is an Asian woman who also has her arm raised above her head in protest.

A9: Our work wouldn’t be possible w/o our community–which has always been led & for people who use drugs, many of whom were/are BIPOC LGBTQIA2S+ folks who literally took the safety & well-being of those around them into their own hands through street work, advocacy, & radical ❤️.

A6: Harm Reduction has created the space that we have. Without it, LLC would cease to exist! It allows us and our members to have nuanced conversations with one another that accounts for our exp with drugs, with sex work, with our queer identities.

A3: The #harmreduction community can grow in part by looking inward @ everything from hiring processes to who is being centered – & left out – of spaces, being mindful of accessibility needs for community connection, & uplifting & supporting more queer folks across all our work.

A3: We would like a convening or conference specifically for LGB/TGNCNBI harm reductionists! So often, our work is sprinkled throughout the major conferences without emphasizing queer bodies and our experiences.

A2. A 🧵🔽 Personally, I hope to teach folks that something as simple as sharing your pronouns and making it safe for others to do the same in your spaces is Harm Reduction. #HarmReductionTwitterChat

A1. @harmreductionNH became a 501(c)(3) in 2017! But the history of Harm Reduction in NH is far before that! Read my interview of Dean LeMire about how SSPs became legal in NH! nhhrc.org/post/breaking-barr… #HarmReductionTwitterChat

It's Hepatitis Awareness Month, & we're here to share good news: #Harmreduction is a proven way to address, prevent, & cure #HepatitisC/#HCV & many organizations are already doing the work "on-the-ground" to make this possible through NHRC's HepConnect initiative. More below ⬇️:
