Description
Project Red is an initiative from the Alano Club of Portland to raise awareness around overdose prevention and to increase the availability and accessibility of overdose prevention supplies and trainings, with a focus on bars, restaurants, strip clubs, entertainment venues, and community based organizations.
Project Red’s website provides links to find pharmacies and community organizations distributing Narcan (naloxone) and conducting trainings by state. https://harmreduction.org/resource-center/harm-reduction-near-you/
Project Red’s website also provides a link to an online harm reduction service designed to reduce opioid overdose death, prevent injection-related disease transmission, and improve the lives of people who use drugs. https://nextdistro.org/
If harm reduction supplies (such as naloxone) are needed and cannot be accessed locally, this website provides information about how to qualify to receive them by mail.
