Findings/Key points

The Beyond Do No Harm Network is a group of US-based health care providers, public health workers, impacted community members, advocates, and organizers working across racial, gender, reproductive, migrant and disability justice, drug policy, sex worker, and anti-HIV criminalization movements to address the harm caused when health providers and institutions and public health researchers and institutions facilitate, participate in and support criminalization. We offer thirteen principles for supporting people’s agency, self-determination, dignity of risk, and general wellbeing.

A discussion guide is available on the same page.
