Sarah Lovegrove

I am a Registered Nurse, human rights activist and advocate for harm reduction and people who use drugs within the context of the ongoing and worsening Toxic Drug Crisis. Working and learning alongside experts in drug policy, I continue to advocate within my community and at all levels of government for evidence-based solutions and inclusive interventions that can minimize death and harm related to the unregulated supply of drugs.
