Expanding Our Reach
We rely fully on volunteers and donations to carry out our vision. If you have suggestions for how we can grow our funding and increase the sustainability of the program, connect with us below.
Medications to Treat Substance Use Disorder
Several medications exist which can help treat substance use disorder and opioid use disorder. Unfortunately, these medications are typically expensive and difficult to get due to few providers prescribing them. One of our primary goals is to reduce the barriers individuals encounter when trying to access these effective and evidence-based treatment options.
Wound Care Referrals
Treatment of acute wounds is a high need for individuals experiencing homelessness. Our goal is to receive referrals from health care providers and thus, improve wound care follow-up and decrease potential for infection.
