About this service
Harm reduction is a process that we incorporate into both Outreach and Narcan shifts. Volunteers carry injection and smoking kits, distributing to men and women. It is inevitable that individuals on the streets will be using these items; therefore it is important that clean needles are supplied to prevent re-use of dirty needles. This effort supports safe injections to prevent HIV, Hepatitis C, and other medical conditions, it also in effect helps to disintegrate black market selling of clean needles where those who are using cannot afford to have clean needles.
