Alliance was invited to attend a screening of Director Jamie Boyle’s personal documentary Anonymous Sister. As the film is centered around substance dependency, Alliance was invited to lead a brief Narcan training to the 60+ audience members, lead by our own Ashley Salgado Lynch on Sunday, June 4. After the training, Ashley took part in a Q&A about harm reduction, and our work.
Alliance holds free weekly virtual Narcan trainings, and serves participants safer use kits at our LES Harm Reduction Center located at 35 E. Broadway, 2nd floor, Monday-Saturday.
Alice Quinlan, part of the impact campaign team for Anonymous Sister, shared, “Directly serving New Yorkers with concrete harm reduction tools was incredibly meaningful and powerful. Thanks to the Alliance, not only were we able to provide Narcan and essential information to the film’s audience, we were able to distribute these resources to IFC Center’s community and neighbors during five screenings of the film.”
