Hi Lynne,

 

Could you please pass this along to the listserv?  Thanks!  John

 

************************************************************************************************************************

 

Campaign for Safer Consumption Sites in Ottawa is pleased to announce our next event, a screening of the movie "Bevel Up: Drugs, Users, and Outreach Nursing". (See attached poster)
 
Where: Ottawa Public Library auditorium, corner of Laurier & Metcalfe
When: April 17, 2012 6:00pm-8:30pm
Cost: Free!  And there will be a delicious bake sale!
 
"Bevel Up" follows nurses from the outreach street program of the BC Centre for Disease Control as they provide effective—and non-judgmental—health care to men and women in Vancouver’s inner city. "Bevel Up" is a compelling, award-winning documentary that chronicles their extraordinary work using harm reduction as a cornerstone of best nursing practice in providing care to injecting drug users, sex workers and other marginalized populations. It is directed by the noted filmmaker Nettie Wild and co-produced by the National Film Board of Canada and the BCCDC outreach nurses themselves.

A panel discussion will follow, on the topics of outreach nursing in our community and the need for safer consumption facilities in Ottawa.
