Women's Stories/Women's Lives: Creating Safer Crack Kits
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In 2004, a research team comprising researchers and service providers launched the Safer Crack Use, Outreach, Research and Education (SCORE) project, aimed at developing a better understanding of the harms associated with crack cocaine smoking and determining the feasibility of specific harm reduction strategies to reduce the likelihood of harms in an inner-city neighbourhood in Canada. The project included several activities, and the ‘women-centred’ activity of constructing harm-reduction kits is the emphasis of this paper. The data for this study are derived from the field notes taken during kit-making sessions with 200 women and from qualitative interviews with the group facilitators. A salient theme of the analysis was the tremendous support that was afforded to women engaging in this activity. Three sub-themes were also identified: (a) creating a safe space, (b) sharing information, and (c) building community. Women-centred activities are an effective means of creating a supportive environment for women and to learn about women’s perspectives concerning the relevance of these activities in their daily lives.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
