Join members of the People, Place, & Health Collective at the Brown University School of Public Health and Project Weber/RENEW for a community conversation about the overdose prevention center coming to Providence soon! Members of the public are welcome, and light refreshments will follow the event. There will be an opportunity for Q&A. The event is April 6 from 6 - 7:30 PM!

Sign up (free, of course) and view the location on Eventbrite:https://www.eventbrite.com/e/community-conversation-learning-about-an-overdose-prevention-center-in-ri-tickets-575024703367

Note that we might have a Zoom option - if we do, link will be in Eventbrite in the coming days.

For some context: Providence is going to be getting only the third overdose prevention center / safe injection site / harm reduction center in the US later this year! An overdose prevention center is a safe place where people can go to use drugs they have obtained elsewhere. Staff monitor for overdoses and provide pathways to care.

Looking for any RN volunteers? I frequently take care of patients post OD and would love to come at it from a different angle.
