The Frontier of Harm Reduction: Expanding Services for Rural People Who Use Drugs

The Rural Health Information Hub's (RHIhub) article covers best practices and emerging models for rural harm reduction programs. Among those featured in the article is the RCORP-TA grantee, the South Dakota State University's program Stigma, Treatment, Avoidance and Recovery in Time - South Dakota (START-SD). The START-SD co-Program Director discusses how harm reduction can be affected in states where syringe services programs (SSPs) are prohibited and naloxone distribution is restricted.
