What do you guys have on the agenda in the way of a Harm Reduction
panel? Hilary McQuie is right here in Oakland. Also Meghan Ralston who
does Harm Reduction work for DPA in LA might be available to come up
if invited. She is focusing a lot attention on overdose prevention--
she's just started a "purple ribbon" campaign to raise awareness of
this issue on facebook and other places.

They might be informative on good samaritan policies.

They're both on facebook and I have email for both. Let me know if you
want more info or want me to contact them.

James
