We believe in harm reduction recognizing that our role is to minimize the consequences that might result from certain behaviors like methamphetamine use or risky sexual activity. We promote health and work with the community to find ways to make staying healthier easier. We have learned over the past 10 years that the methamphetamine use is strongly connect with risk sexual behavior that increases the risk for STDs including syphilis and HIV infection. In our efforts to prevent STDs and HIV, addressing methamphetamine use, creating methamphetamine awarenes and treatment programs is very important. Jeffrey D.
