Syringe Services Programs (SSPs) are harm reduction programs that provide access for people who use substances to receive sterile syringes and allows for the safe disposal of used syringes, along with overdose prevention education, preventive supplies such as naloxone and fentanyl test strips (where legal), screening and assessment, and referral to treatment and other supportive services. ¹Evidence shows that SSPs increase an individual’s likelihood to access substance use disorder treatment and recovery, reduces overdose, and reduces infectious disease transmission.²Laws pertaining to SSPs vary among states and justice practitioners are encouraged to consult their state laws to learn more.
