SAOL Project invites you to “Messy: The Intersectional Lives of Women Who Use Drugs and Alcohol,” a unique conference on November 5th at the Academy Plaza Hotel, Dublin. For 30 years, SAOL has championed evidence-based, gender-responsive practice with women whose lives are “messy” - meaning they are shaped by intricate intersections of substance use, homelessness, poverty, violence, mothering, and marginalisation. Messy brings together expert speakers from Spain, the UK, and Ireland, each with deep experience of supporting “Messy Women” and advancing innovative, trauma-informed approaches. The day promises dynamic learning and honest reflection on why siloed, one-size-fits-all interventions miss the reality of women’s lived experience, and how pioneering work across Europe is driving change. Join researchers, practitioners, and women with lived experience as we explore how empowering, integrated responses help dismantle stigma, promote recovery, and open pathways to dignity and independence. All details and registration at saolproject.ie. This event is a must for professionals, policymakers, and anyone interested in advancing inclusive, feminist practice in addiction, homelessness, and social care.
