| HB 73 | Relative to Harm Reduction, Substance Misuse, and The Governor's Commission On Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention, Treatment, and Recovery. The bill is focused on continuing and enhancing harm reduction efforts in New Hampshire, particularly through the Doorways program and community collaboration. It aims to provide a more structured, comprehensive approach to addiction recovery, while addressing concerns related to terminology and the balance between individual and societal harm. The bill has broad support from local law enforcement and addiction recovery communities, though some concerns remain about its scope and implementation. Rep. Hartnett raised the question of whether needle exchange programs contribute to increased substance use. Rep. Nagel responded that the goal of such programs is disease prevention, not to encourage drug use. These programs provide opportunities for health check-ins and help build trust with individuals, enabling them to take the next step in their recovery. Support: 13 | Oppose: 2 | Neutral: 0 |
