About this service
Highlight of Programs / Services:
- SWAP works from a Harm Reduction philosophy. Harm reduction is based on dealing with the person where they are at respecting, honouring and supporting their ability to make decisions. One of these decisions may be to use drugs or to engage in other higher-risk behaviours. People use substances for many social, economic, physical health, mental health and personal reasons.
