🔥 FFR Leadership Summit Spotlight 🔥

We are honored to welcome Sam Rivera to the 2026 Leadership Summit!

Sam Rivera is the Executive Director of OnPoint NYC and a deeply respected leader in harm reduction, public health, and social justice.

With more than 30 years of experience in social services, Sam has dedicated his life’s work to caring for communities most impacted by the criminal legal system, the War on Drugs, HIV/AIDS, mental health challenges, and overdose.

An Indigenous Afro-Taino/Boricua, Sam leads with heart, courage, lived experience and commitment. In 2021, he helped make history by opening the first two sanctioned Overdose Prevention Centers in the United States—creating spaces rooted in dignity, safety, and love.

His leadership continues to shape public health policy through bold, community-driven solutions that center humanity first. Sam’s work has been nationally recognized, including being named one of TIME magazine’s 100 Most Influential People in the World in 2023.
