What is a needle exchange program?

A needle exchange program, also called a syringe service program (SSP), provides clean syringes and safe injection supplies to people who inject drugs. These programs reduce the spread of HIV and Hepatitis C, prevent overdose deaths through naloxone distribution, and connect people with treatment when they are ready. Services are free, confidential, and available without ID in most locations.

Where can I get free Narcan (naloxone) near me?

Free naloxone (brand name Narcan) is available at many harm reduction organizations, syringe service programs, local health departments, and some pharmacies. Use our directory to find naloxone distribution sites in your state. Many programs will mail naloxone to you for free. In an emergency, call 911.

Are harm reduction services confidential?

Yes. Harm reduction services are confidential and typically do not require identification, insurance, or proof of residency. Programs are designed to be low-barrier and judgment-free. Your personal information is protected.

What are fentanyl test strips?

Fentanyl test strips are inexpensive tools that can detect the presence of fentanyl in drugs. Since fentanyl is often mixed into other substances without the user knowing, these strips can save lives by alerting people to the presence of this extremely potent opioid. Many harm reduction programs distribute free fentanyl test strips.

Do I have to stop using drugs to access harm reduction services?

No. Harm reduction services meet people where they are. You do not need to be in recovery or stop using substances to access needle exchanges, naloxone, HIV testing, or other harm reduction services. These programs aim to reduce the risks associated with drug use while respecting your autonomy.
