Chris Gough is the Executive Director of the Canberra Alliance for Harm Minimisation and Advocacy (CAHMA), an alcohol, tobacco and other drug service delivery and advocacy organisation run by and for people who use drugs and people who use drug treatment services in the ACT.  Chris is the President of the Australian Illicit and Injecting Drug Users League (AIVL) and identifies as a person who uses drugs.  Chris’ expertise centres around peer and consumer driven programming, community development and leadership as well as systemic advocacy.  His vision is for a society where people who use drugs are not criminalised but rather supported and understood, where drug markets are not controlled by organised crime but instead properly regulated and where drug treatment and harm reduction are sufficiently funded.
