BEVEL UP | Safer Use, Overdose Prevention & Other Harm Reduction Tips
Bevel Up was created by people who use drugs for people who use drugs. We designed Bevel Up for community-based organizations, grassroots programs, health departments, and other groups running or supporting syringe services programs (SSPs) and other harm reduction services. Messages and recommendations come from current and former users with experience navigating an unregulated and unpredictable drug supply, health providers, and program staff who serve people who use drugs. Topics include vein care, safer injection, alternative routes of administration, and naloxone and overdose prevention.
