MEDICINE HAT, AB – Kym Porter has worked tirelessly as a member of the Medicine Hat Drug Coalition for about seven years, around the same time her son Neil Balmer died of an overdose.
The group aims to change the stigma around substance users as well as acknowledge and honour those still here and those lost, in part through the message #WeSeeYou.
Porter joined Lisa Parent on CHAT News at Noon to talk more about the group’s work, the stigmas it is trying to change and what’s planned for the International Overdose Awareness Day event in Medicine Hat on Aug. 31.
