Politico reports on OnPoint NYC’s overdose prevention centers:
“Overdose prevention centers, where people with substance use disorder consume illicit drugs under supervision, keep people alive and prevent them from using drugs in public, those involved in a New York City program say.
Still, supervised drug use remains in a legal gray zone, holding back its widespread implementation, officials from the city’s Department of Health and Mental Hygiene and representatives of OnPoint NYC, which runs the sites, wrote in a study published in the NEJM Catalyst this week.”
