Unfortunately due to a training that we need to attend, Safe Syringe will not be able to be out at 1601 W Morris Street, tomorrow, April 22. If you are in need of services tomorrow, the Damien Center will be open from 2pm to 6pm.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

Due to legislative changes effective today, March 10th, 2026, Safe Syringe will now be required to see a valid form of ID from participants and will operate as a 1:1 exchange. The number of used syringes returned will equate the number of sterile syringes that can be given. Staff onsite are here to support and answer questions!

Over the last three days, there has been an increase in suspected overdoses at Marion County emergency departments. Reports include use of opioids, m**h, benzos, co***ne, and spice/KD. If you would like any of your supplies tested (syringes, baggies, pipe covers, filters), come to any of the syringe exchange locations to get swabbed. We are open at 1434 Shelby St tomorrow (Tuesday) from 12:30 to 4:30 pm.
