We work to advance harm reduction & drug policy reform in NJ. We are people who use drugs, people who used to use drugs, & people harmed by the racist drug war.

We are experiencing an emergent drug supply disruption in South Jersey: On 4/27, the US Attorney’s Office District of NJ shut down a pain treatment practice in Cherry Hill that was serving 300-400 patients across Camden, Burlington, Ocean, Cape May, & Gloucester Counties 🧵

Such impactful work! @NJHarmReduction
She co-founded ⁦@NJHarmReduction⁩ Coalition, and ⁦@jennamellor⁩ says there’s a reason NJ drug deaths are trending downwards. Unfortunately, that trend doesn’t include everybody. Details tonite @NJSpotlightNews

Harm reduction saves lives. It’s no coincidence that overdose deaths finally started to decline in New Jersey after the state expanded harm reduction services. Big shout out to @jennamellor and @NJHarmReduction—for changing laws *and* distributing 100k overdose prevention kits!

We’re hearing the importance of not making artificial distinctions between people who use drugs & small-time drug sellers. Under our system of criminalization, that’s often the same person.
