About this service
Street College engages people who use(d) illicit drugs in an educational process that confronts stigma related to drug use, HIV & Hepatitis C (HCV), and poverty; increases self-awareness and supports; and builds skills in peer support, advocacy, prevention and leadership.
There are several streams of street college including Anti-Stigma, Harm Reduction and Safer Use, and Leadership streams. Street College has come full circle from people who use drugs being recipients of education, to peers being key decision-makers, leaders and facilitators of Street College programming.
