Harm Reduction Tracker Cards - Alcohol Version (10 or 20 card pack)

Ready-to-hand-out harm reduction your clients can actually use

WHAT IT IS: A wallet-sized harm reduction tool you can hand clients in seconds. Each card tracks one drinking event (night out, party, wedding, etc.) with 8 scratch-off spots that reveal progressive support messages exactly when your client needs them most.

No printing, no prep, no complicated instructions. Just grab a card from your desk, hand it to your client before their high-risk event, and let the card do the work.

HOW IT WORKS:

For you (the counselor):
- Keep cards in the container on your desk or in session materials
- When client has upcoming drinking event, hand them one card
- Simple instruction: "Scratch one for each drink, bring it back next week"
- Process the completed card together in your next session

For your client:
- Takes card to drinking event (fits in wallet/pocket)
- Scratches off one spot for each drink consumed
- Reveals harm reduction messages (from "Stay hydrated" to "No shame in stopping")
- Brings completed card to next session (or tosses it—their choice)

The scratch-off format creates engagement even after several drinks, while progressive messages provide real-time support at the moment of decision-making—not the morning after.

WHAT'S INCLUDED:

- 10 wallet-sized cards (credit card size) or 20 wallet-sized cards (credit card size)
- 8 scratch-off tracking spots per card with progressive harm reduction messages
- Reflection prompts on reverse side for post-event processing
- "My person" write-in space for adding counselor/sponsor contact info
- Durable cardstock (non-laminated so clients can write on it)
- Clear storage container for your office (keeps cards organized and ready to distribute)

Messages clients will see:
- Stay hydrated
- Eat something
- Pace yourself
- Check in: How do you feel?
- Pay attention to your body
- Take a break
- Think about tomorrow
- No shame in stopping

PERFECT FOR:

✓ Harm reduction counselors with active caseloads
✓ College counseling centers
✓ MAT clinics providing supplemental client tools
✓ Outpatient treatment programs (IOPs, PHPs)
✓ Private practice therapists who work with substance use
✓ Any counselor tired of printing handouts clients immediately lose

WHY THIS WORKS: Point-of-use intervention that appears in real-time while drinking. Gamified scratch-offs are engaging even after a few drinks. Creates visual limit without shame—8 spots = natural endpoint. Physical artifacts show patterns over time for clinical processing.
