We are pleased to invite representatives of the Side by Side Homeopathy project to return to discuss the development and effectiveness of their volunteer project that was first introduced at our 2009 conference.  This free homeopathic project works in conjunction with Onsite, the detox treatment facility adjoining Insite, North America’s first legal supervised injection site in downtown Vancouver.
