Philosophy - Reducing Harm & Enhancing Health
At Breakaway Addiction Services we are dedicated to providing treatment that includes all aspects of our clients lives and situations. We have always operated on a non abstinence or harm reduction approach, which forms the philosophical basis for all our work, in reducing harm and enhancing the health of our clients.
Harm reduction is a set of practical strategies that reduce the negative consequences of drug use, incorporating a spectrum of strategies from safer use, to managed use, to abstinence. We use a harm reduction framework to support people who use drugs, to live better according to their own definition of better, while addressing the conditions of use, along with the use itself.
