Share your story

Your story can help change how our communities and leaders understand drugs and respond to them.  

If drugs or current drug policies have affected your life, your experience can help guide better policy, services and support – and we’d love to hear from you.   

Your experience might include: 

  • losing a loved one to overdose,  
  • experiencing overdose yourself,  
  • being criminalised for cannabis possession leading to employment, 
  • housing and travel complications, or 
  • experiencing challenges accessing health services needed to manage dependence or addiction.  

Your story really does matter. When people share their experiences, it helps others – and people in power – understand what the harms from drugs look like. That understanding can change how our communities and leaders respond.  

If you’re open to having a confidential conversation about your experience, please fill out this confidential expression of interest form.
