<p style="margin:0in"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">Joan Viteri Memorial Clinic (JVMC) is a UC Davis School of Medicine student-run clinic. We offer unbiased health care to individuals who are traditionally stigmatized
by our healthcare system - such as those who use intravenous drugs, work in the sex trade, or identify as transgender, as well as to their families. JVMC is located in the Oak Park area of Sacramento, and no one who walks through our doors is turned away.

<p style="margin:0in"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">Our clinic is organizing a
<b><i>virtual Harm Reduction Conference</i></b> on <b>Saturday, April 2, 2022 via Zoom</b>. We want to use our platform as UC Davis students to better inform people about Harm Reduction principles. Harm Reduction focuses to reduce the spread of disease and
death from drug use. Some successful strategies of Harm Reduction include medication-assisted treatment, needle exchange programs, safe injection sites, relaxing restrictions on naloxone, and many more. These strategies have been shown to reduce overdose deaths,
the spread of infectious diseases, and, in many cases, the nonmedical use of dangerous drugs. The remote conference will consist of Harm Reduction-related researchers and public health advocates across California. You can learn more at the Harm Reduction Coalition
website:</span><a href="https://harmreduction.org/about-us/principles-of-harm-reduction/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black;text-decoration:none">

<p style="margin:0in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">Harm Reduction is a philosophy valuable to anyone who is interested in medicine, law, social work, public policy, or simply advocates for the betterment of
their community. At the end of this conference, attendees will have the ability to apply Harm Reduction in their daily life as well as their profession.
