Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A needle exchange program is consistent with a harm reduction approach, as it aims to reduce the harm associated with drug use by providing access to clean needles, reducing the spread of disease, and offering counseling and referral services. Targeting drug traffickers, an Al-Anon group, and Students against drunk driving may all have their benefits, but they do not directly address harm reduction in the same way as a needle exchange program.
