Hey all!

I need some volunteers to help me build some kits for my program, One Voice Recovery, Inc., in Contra Costa County, California.

The kits will be distributed to people who use drugs in our community.

In addition to supplies needed to prevent the infection of communicable diseases, such as HIV, hepatitis C and hepatitis B, the kits will also include fentanyl test kits, Narcan/naloxone and safer smoking supplies, which are necessary to prevent overdose and spread of infectious diseases. 

Please send me PM if you are interested in volunteering to build kits that will ultimately save lives and empower better health outcomes for people who use drugs.

Check out One Voice Recovery to see what we are up to in Cali.

The decision by the Supreme Court is mind numbing…

NHRC vehemently opposes the criminalization of people who are houseless. Everyone deserves to have a roof over their head, and criminalizing poverty is wrong. Any step to criminalize people who are houseless will greatly impact people who use drugs, putting lives at risk. Housing is a human right.

Drug "hierarchy" mindsets only fuel the stigmas people who use drugs face. All people who use drugs — and any kind of drug — deserve resources, stigma-free support, and love. Learn more about how various factors including surrounding environments, resources, and state of mind can change the impacts of drug use and enroll in our on-demand online courses, including "Engaging People Who Use Drugs."

Seriously… get over the panic and redirect to a system and services that work… the majority of opioid reversals are performed by people who use drugs and their loved ones, chosen families and their friends.

The myth that fentanyl is deadly to the touch won’t die. This falsehood has devastating consequences
