We are a peer-led mobile harm reduction provider for people who use drugs in the Greater St Louis Metro East area in IL.
Our small, but passionately dedicated team is a mix of folx with lived/living experience and/or people in self-defined recovery. We center our core principles and we are dedicated to dismantling oppressive systems by working intentionally outside of the normative traditional structures of the non-profit industrial complex and charity model. We work through the lens of an alternative mutual aid model with "in the trenches" kind of folx. Are you passionate about ending the war on drugs (the war on people who use drugs)? Do you believe in the principles of harm reduction, radical love, and any positive change? Reach out to us for more info.
Seeing a need for low-barrier harm reduction services in our community, we began our grassroots harm reduction work in 2017 in the Greater STL Metro East IL area. Today we serve over 500+ participants in Madison, St. Clair, & Jersey Counties in IL & beyond. Our services include mobile delivery of all safer drug use supplies, safer smoking and snorting kits, naloxone (Narcan), stimulant use supplies and PNP chemsex gear, confidential drug checking by request, safer sex supplies, peer centered harm reduction education, point-of-care wound care services, and referrals to community resources. It's ALWAYS FREE!!
We empower people who use drugs with options for safer drug use supplies and overdose education by creating authentic relationships built with safety and trust. We advocate for compassionate and progressive evidence-based drug policy reform on a local, state, and national level to promote equity and reduce the harm to people who use drugs and the numerous intersections of marginalized folx within our communities. We intentionally practice radical love and acceptance every day to make connections with PWUD and meet them where they are, just as they are. We deliver safer use supplies, peer education, and access to services and resources to promote self-directed wellness. We recognize and stand firm that any self directed positive change IS RECOVERY!
Your support and contributions will enable us to continue to provide safer use supplies to our friends in Madison, St. Clair, and Jersey Counties in the Greater STL Metro East Area in Southern Illinois.
