In the month of April the CORE team had 691 encounters during which they distributed 2,860 doses of naloxone, over 1500 sterile syringes, 900 fentanyl test strips and 300 sterile pipes. Distributing sterile supplies to people who use drugs mitigates secondary health problems such as reducing the spread of communicable diseases. It is very important to our team that people have the tools to stay alive and safer, so if you or someone you know is in need of sterile supplies, naloxone or test strips; please don’t hesitate to call or text 401-603-6069. The CORE team is funded by RIDOH to provide anonymous home delivery for harm reduction supplies anywhere in Rhode Island.
