Overdose deaths are rising rapidly across Illinois, affecting more families every day.

 

The need for effective solutions is greater than ever.

 

Harm reduction is a vital approach to addressing this crisis. By providing practical strategies and resources like safe injection sites, needle exchange programs, and access to naloxone, we can save lives and support our communities.

 

We believe in meeting each other where we are, honoring the unique experiences of every individual.

 

There is a strong need for more support for evidence-based solutions that prioritize safety and respect.

 

Join us for an important conversation on how harm reduction can help end overdoses and create safer communities for everyone.
