Street Health Overdose Prevention Site

06/27/2025

On June 27, 2018, our Overdose Prevention Site opened its doors to clients with six months of funding from the Kathleen Wynne government and a dream of providing low barrier supervised consumption services to Street Health's existing clients. Seven years later we are one of only four remaining sites in the city. We have hosted over 14 500 visits and reversed over 350 overdoses onsite. We have laughed, we have cried, we have resuscitated people in full PPE during a global pandemic. We have managed to stay open with (shamefully) no government funding through donations only (link in bio - we need your support!).

We know that harm reduction saves lives and people who use drugs deserve the same kindness, compassion, chance at a good life, and access to healthcare as everyone else - whether they are interested in treatment or not. We will keep fighting for a fairer and more compassionate world for people who use substances and for all people. #

In August, the Ontario government announced their plans to close half of the Consumption and Treatment Services (CTS) across the province. Closing these ten sites will exacerbate the ongoing toxic drug poisoning crisis, leading to countless preventable deaths. We desperately need a multi-pronged approach to ending the overdose crisis in this province that includes harm reduction and access to evidence-based treatment.

Please join in demanding that these sites stay open on Monday, October 21st at Queen’s Park at noon.

Please sponsor our walk to fund Street Health services if you are able. Providing low barrier, client centred healthcare to folks in Toronto's downtown east - our OPS, in particular, receives $0 in government funds and really needs the support:

The Coldest Night of the Year is a winterrific family-friendly walk to raise money for local charities serving people experiencing hurt, hunger, and homelessness. Team up, fundraise, walk, and look closer... because it’s cold out there.

Wishing our staff member Justine all the very best as she continues her harm reduction journey at Parkdale Queen West CHC. Justine will be joining the team at on Saturday, February 24. Please sponsor us (along with all Street Health programs) if you are able to, using the link in our bio. Our OPS receives zero dollars in government funding to provide the life-saving client-centered care that our staff are so great at. Overdose death is preventable and every dollar helps us remain open!

It's warm in the OPS today (enjoy our still life vintage apothecary vibes) but we will be walking in the cold on February 24th to raise money for all of Street Health's crucial, low barrier, client-centred, harm reduction-based services. Please visit the link in our bio to donate! 💉✊❤❄🚶‍♂️
