Join an innovative risk reduction project in Geneva

As part of the cantonal strategic plan for the prevention and reduction of risks related to crack use, the association Première ligne is looking for motivated individuals to participate in the development of innovative actions in favour of substance users.

• Le Pôle de valorisation, offering psychosocial support;
• Nuit Blanche, a risk reduction action in festive environments;
• L'Adresse, a housing access service;

• Strong interest in risk reduction and topics related to drugs, HIV/AIDS, prostitution, precariousness, migration and social exclusion;

• Good interpersonal skills and ability to work in a team;
