syringe exchange program

The Syringe Exchange Program provides new syringes for used ones for over 10,000 registered participants at six weekly exchange sites. Exchange participants access information and develop strategies for reducing the risk of HIV, hepatitis and other drug- and injection-related harm. Anonymous HIV testing and counseling; help with bench warrants and violations of probation and parole; and referrals for drug treatment, medical care and social services are provided at each exchange site.

street-side health project

The Street-Side Health Project provides free medical care, including family planning services, STI screening and treatment, hepatitis A and B vaccination, hepatitis C screening, wound care, and other services at three of the weekly syringe exchange sites. Patients do not need insurance or identification and may be treated for problems related or un-related to drug use.

The Harm Reduction Services Center (HRSC) at 166 W. Lehigh Avenue houses five activity and support groups, a medical clinic, a legal clinic and anonymous HIV testing. Additionally, it serves as headquarters for PPP’s community and street outreach efforts.
