International Harm Reduction Conference
Look out, Belfast! Here we come!
Training and support from people who've been there.
Smoke Works sessions are led by people with real, lived experience in harm reduction, drug use, and the communities we serve. Our job is to leave your team better equipped, more confident, and with a clearer picture of how safer smoking fits into the bigger picture.
Featured Training
Safer Smoking in Harm Reduction
A single session, built around your team's needs. We'll bring it to you virtually or in person.
What we cover
What harm reduction has to offer beyond opioid injection, and how to expand your program to serve more people. We get into who gets left out of traditional harm reduction services, the evidence behind safer smoking initiatives, and the practical reality of pipe distribution.
Who we train
We work with outreach programs, community health centers, and mutual aid groups. Whether your people are frontline workers, admin, policy folks, or healthcare providers, we'll meet them where they are. Anyone doing HIV or overdose prevention work is welcome.
Built for you
Every session is built around what your group actually needs. There's a real difference between a 30-minute macro view for a conference room and a hands-on walkthrough of how to use a meth pipe. We'll work with you to figure out what makes sense.
Bring us to your conference
Smoke Works presents at harm reduction conferences throughout the year, bringing a panoramic view of safer smoking's impact on harm reduction, recovery, and drug users' rights. All sessions are led by people with corresponding lived experience. If you're organizing a session or looking for a speaker, get in touch.
Consultations
Not sure which session is right for your team, or want to talk through a specific challenge before committing to a full training? Book a free call. We'll figure out together what your program needs and whether Smoke Works is the right fit to help.

Harm reduction doesn't stop at the needle
Lots of people who use drugs don't inject and many harm reduction programs aren't reaching them. Pipes open the door.
