Syringe Access Services
Aurora Syringe Access Services is a safe, legal, non-judgmental place to get free injection supplies confidentially. We provide outreach, education and syringe exchange services for people who inject drugs and their partners in the Aurora area, especially along Colfax Avenue.
Injecting drugs can lead to infections such as HIV and Hepatitis C Virus. Syringe Access Services can reduce these infections by providing people who inject drugs with sterile, safer injection supplies and safe disposal of needles. Aurora Syringe Access Services can also refer clients to substance abuse treatment and prevent overdose by providing Naloxone, an anti-overdose medication.
Aurora Syringe Access Services is Open
