Overview
HIPS promotes the health, rights, and dignity of individuals and communities impacted by sexual exchange and/or drug use due to choice, coercion, or circumstance. HIPS provides compassionate harm reduction services, advocacy, and community engagement that is respectful, non-judgmental, and affirms and honors individual power and agency. With our new Center for Health and Achievement our services have expanded! We always offer syringe exchange, both through our drop in center or via delivery on our outreach van, condom distribution, access to overdose prevention supplies, and linkage to HIPS full menu of support services. Clients can come to our drop in center Monday - Friday for showers and laundry and access to our clothing closet.
