Scenes from Alliance LES Harm Reduction Center's April Open House

Alliance’s LES Harm Reduction Center is visited weekly by hundreds of program participants accessing essential services like Narcan, fentanyl test strips, socks, blankets, safer smoking/boofing/snorting kits, and much more. We also have regularly scheduled Open House days with food and games for participants to enjoy, like this one held Friday, April 28. All photos: David Nager/Alliance

Alliance Staff Narcan Training

As a harm reduction organization, we offer free Virtual Narcan trainings every Friday (https://alliance.nyc/events?tag=Virtual+Narcan.) But we also prioritize making sure our staff is prepared to administer Narcan onsite or in their time outside of work. Eddie and Joel lead engaging staff trainings for our staff on site in Midtown Central. All photos: David Nager/Alliance.
