Program 1: Reducing Drug Use Overdose Rates in New York City.*
In June 2022, the New York City (NYC) Department of Health and Mental Hygiene reported that a person dies from a drug overdose in NYC every three hours (NYC Health 2022). With high rates of overdose deaths in NYC and the increasing risk of dangerous opioids contributing to these overdoses, there is a need to establish protective mechanisms for this vulnerable population.
Overdose prevention centers (OPCs) are like syringe service programs in that they provide safe spaces for sterile needle exchanges, harm reduction services, and health care referrals. However, OPCs have the added service of being a supervised injection site. These sites are overseen by health care professionals to help reverse overdoses when needed. Though OPCs have been implemented in other countries globally with success, these sites have remained under consideration in the United States (US).
In November of 2021, the nation’s first OPC site (privately funded) was opened in NYC in two Manhattan neighborhoods. With recent increases in opioid-related overdose deaths across the nation, supervised injection sites have the potential to save lives and get people who inject drugs (PWIDs) connected to necessary health care services. The goal of the program is to reduce overdose deaths in the two Manhattan neighborhoods by 15% in the first year of program implementation. Additionally, the program aims to conduct health care assessments on 40% of PWIDs that utilize the services of the center. By engaging with a vulnerable population in a meaningful way, the OPC site hopes to establish a positive rapport among the community and among the NYC Health Department to garner further financial support and scaling of services to additional neighborhoods.
