Overview
Founded in 2011, Trystereo is an all-volunteer harm reduction collective. We operate as a free, mobile public health resource for people who use drugs in southeastern Louisiana. Trystereo distributes harm reduction supplies such as naloxone, sterile syringes, works, condoms, glass pipes and wound care kits. We also provide overdose prevention trainings and information on regional resources related to housing, MAT, HIV/HCV testing, and primary care. We made changes to our Meetup Protocol to help reduce unnecessary travel and contact with strangers. In a nutshell: we will deliver supplies to you at a location where you are already sheltering-in-place. When you text for supplies, please let us know how many supplies you and/or your friends would need for 2-3 weeks, provide at least a 4-hour window of time you will be available to pick up the supplies, and give us an address we can navigate to drop-off the supplies. Supplies will come in prepackaged black bags with kits that have been untouched for at least 72 hours. We will text you when we are heading out to you, pulling up, and again once we’ve dropped them off to confirm receipt. When we arrive, we will not make any physical contact and request that you stand at least 6 feet away from us, if at all (if possible, please remain indoors). Thank you for bearing with us!
