2 years ago, @brownuniversity began researching the impact of OPCs, looking to our centers as a model. With Providence, RI, recently opening the 1st state-sanctioned OPC, BU highlights insights from the study & how researchers will measure impact. bit.ly/3PKkkok

Finding images that aren't stigmatizing when it comes to overdose prevention centers can be a challenge. that's why we are proud to unveil our new resource: a photo and video library that can be used for free (with a tiny attribution). download at opcinfo.org/photolib.

There's also a poster that takes a quick look inside an OPC and summarizes the services they offer. You can download that as well at opcinfo.org/comic.

RI will soon open the state's first overdose prevention center, a space where people can use drugs safely and connect with resources. Professor @_alexbcollins of @pph_collective explains how the innovative approach will work, and why it will improve lives. filtermag.org/providence-ove…

We were proud to collaborate with @_OnPointNYC to produce this virtual tour that walks you through an OPC step by step and explains how it works. check it out at opcinfo.org/tour!

Since launching the US' first OPCs, we've educated many about our work. To enhance our facilities, we're reducing in-person tours this year. Explore our virtual tour with @Brown_SPH, @pph_collective, & @opcinformation: bit.ly/3MeBmcE
