I would like to strongly encourage you to attend a lecture – as part of our staff development and training, being given by Dr. Bruce Alexander, on

Nov 12th at Noon – 2pm.

He will be speaking on the topic of “Folk Devils and Moral Panic” – The
Globalization of Addiction.
Dr. Alexander has studied addictions for over 30 years, and is a renowned
expert in the field.

He was one of the founding Board Members of the PHS Community Services
Society, and understands very clearly the role of harm reduction based approaches, policy, housing and the role of a strong community
in the DTES, and in the context of addiction.

He will be speaking at the Fletcher Challenge Auditorium (Room 1900) at
the Simon Fraser University Harbour Centre on Thursday November 12th from
noon-2pm.

Look forward to seeing you there,
Coco
