It recognizes that while some people may not be ready or able to stop using drugs, there are ways to minimize the risks involved. Harm reduction includes a spectrum of strategies, from safer use and managed use to abstinence. It also involves addressing conditions of use and the use itself.

- [Wrestle With Jimmy- PinkerTour @ Esoteric Brewing](https://starttodayharmreduction.org/event/wrestle-with-jimmy-pinkertour-esoteric-brewing/): We've had this one in the works for a while, so we are *unbelievably* stoked to announce that our friends Wrestle with Jimmy will be coming town on September 25 at Esoteric Brewing Company. Who is Wrestle With Jimmy? Only the preeminent Weezer cover band this side of the Mississippi. They're bringing their epic show to Cincinnati in celebration of 30 Years of 'Pinkerton' (almost to the day, even), Weezer's divisively beloved second album, and will be playing the album in it's entirety, along with a few b-sides from the 'Pinkerton' era. THEN they'll play a second set of Weezer classics - you know which ones. Two important things are happening with this show: 1) We'll have guest vocalists, and maybe even guest guitarists, for as many songs as possible. In a Cincy (or close to Cincy) band and want to get involved? Message us and we'll see what we can do.2) A percentage of the proceeds from the night will benefit our good friends at Start Today Harm Reduction. So you get to sing along, geek out, and do some good. Tickets are on sale now through the Esoteric website (link in our bio), and we suggest getting them early as there's a good chance this one hits capacity pretty quickly. We hope y'all are ready for one hell of a night. September 25 can't get here fast enough.
