From 12-Steps to Harm Reduction: Bridging the Gap with Dee-Dee Stout

Having some alcohol-free time is a really good strategy to help people to change their drinking habits.
What happens when traditional 12-step programs meet harm reduction? This episode of Harm Reduction Radio brings you an eye-opening conversation with host Kenneth Anderson, who dives into the HAMS approach to reducing alcohol consumption. Anderson kicks things off with a monologue on HAMS due to a guest mix-up, but the real treat comes when he sits down with Dee-Dee Stout, the author of 'Coming to Harm Reduction Kicking & Screaming: Looking for Harm Reduction in a 12-Step World'.
Stout is known for her unique ability to connect the dots between conventional treatment methods and harm reduction strategies. She shares her journey and insights on navigating these seemingly opposite worlds. The episode wraps up with addiction expert Stanton Peele, who discusses the history and compatibility of 12-step programs with harm reduction techniques. Expect to hear about goal-setting, risk assessment, and the power of motivational interviewing.
Whether you're new to harm reduction or looking for fresh perspectives, this episode is packed with valuable takeaways.
