We can offer community members supplies that reduce harm and prevent overdose, helping them avoid potentially devastating and costly diseases such as HIV and hepatitis. Supplies in the machines can include items such as naloxone, deterra bags, safe sex supplies, fentanyl test strips, and first aid supplies.
