Overdose Prevention Sites
Overdose Prevention Sites are safe, supervised locations where people can use their own drugs under medical oversight. These sites aim to reduce the risk of fatal overdoses by providing immediate help if someone overdoses, alongside access to clean equipment and health resources. They do not promote drug use but offer a controlled environment to prevent tragic outcomes, connect individuals to treatment, and reduce public health risks associated with drug misuse. These sites are part of harm reduction strategies to improve safety and health for people who use drugs.
