The YWCA Thompson launched the Locker Project last year as a harm reduction strategy.

Nicole Apetagon, the Women’s Programs Coordinator with the YWCA, explains how it works.

“The locker project is a partnership between the YWCA Thompson and the Northern Regional Health Authority. It is an initiative within the harm reduction frame work where drug users are able to stay anonymous and have free access and safe drug supply such as pipes and mouth pieces.”

The Locker Project is a part of a partnership between the YWCA and the Northern Regional Health Authority.
