WHO ARE WE?

The Harm Reduction Expansion Project (co-sponsored by The Collegiate Recovery Program and PartySafe@Cal) seeks to expand existing harm reduction information, training and resources to address risks of potential fentanyl contamination. We provide the following for students, staff, faculty and student groups:

  • Low to no cost fentanyl test strips 

  • Naloxone/Narcan 

  • Harm reduction & recovery awareness education and training resources 

  • Leadership to reduce stigma related to substance use in our campus community, that interferes with our capacity to help ourselves and each other 

Come Meet Us

The Harm Reduction Expansion Project tables on Sproul plaza every Tuesday from 1-3 pm (Spring ’24). We are happy to chat about all things harm reduction and answer any questions you may have
