Our new study found 44% of syringe services programs (SSPs) distributed safer smoking supplies in 2022. SSPs distributing supplies had more participant encounters and naloxone distribution. Safer smoking supplies are a key tool to connect people who use drugs to life-saving services.

Great to see people in Glasgow accessing a safe hygienic place with staff available to help and support them. I live with the consequences of rushed injections in unsanitary places & I hope we see other DCR models open. Temp accommodation could host them #StopTheDeaths news.stv.tv/west-central...

Good morning, Here's hoping 2025 brings better policies and improved outcomes for people who use drugs. Swift access to all viable treatment options alongside high-quality psychosocial support. Punitive/paternal practice doesn't nuture therapeutic relationships - how can it!

If your service supports people who use drugs but none of your staff have ever attended mutual aid groups to see what they are all about, are you offering people insight to all available options or just the "professional" ones.....

I hope this paves the way for other models - especially in temporary accommodation. I experienced overdoses in hostels using in secret for fear of eviction, and have seen many folk at high risk when I worked in a rapid access housing service. #StopTheDeaths
