Street Healths Harm Reduction team supports individuals who struggle with complex challenges such as: substance use and dependency, homelessness and mental health concerns. We provide both needle exchange and stem distribution services, for the purpose of reducing disease transmission and to build relationships with individuals who may be isolated by stigma and discrimination. Our clients face serious risks related to their homelessness and their substance use/dependency. Beyond just offering supplies and education, we aim to provide a non-judgmental and accepting atmosphere that empowers clients instead of stigmatizing them based on their substance use. Services Distribution - We distribute safer drug use kits for both injection and smoking. Kits can be obtained on site at Street Health during office hours. Likewise, the Harm Reduction team distributes supplies through street outreach services: hours and routes vary; please call the office for updated information.
