Summary: 
1998 Pamphlet announcing an upcoming symposium, "Out of Harm's Way", being organized by the Carnegie Community Association of Vancouver. The symposium was to be a response to the fact that drugs, crime and addiction continue to present a major challenge in Canada and yet there is still no consensus on a comprehensive plan to tackle the situation. The Symposium was to include presentations by scholars and researchers from Germany, the US, Canada and Switzerland, on issues of drug courts and treatment options; harm reduction programs; and public policy strategies in relation to drugs, crime and addiction.
