Abstract
We share highlights from our findings from our qualitative research with social service providers, who use a harm reduction lens in their work with youth engaged in sex trade and use drugs. We explore the successes and challenges that providers face when advocating for their clients. We also give a brief review of current literature and share best practices from an international public health perspective. Both social work researchers have had extensive practice experience in using the harm reduction philosophy with their clients.
