Law Enforcement Training Booking and Events

Naloxone use, overdose, and needlestick prevention

The North Carolina Harm Reduction Coalition (NCHRC), is a statewide nonprofit that focuses on public health and disease and overdose prevention.  NCHRC works with law enforcement departments to inform their officers about NC’s 2013 Senate Bill 20/ NC’s 2015 Senate Bill 154 (overdose prevention law that allows law enforcement to use naloxone on 3rd parties), NC’s 2013 House Bill 850/NC 2015 HB 712 (this bill decriminalizes syringes and cracked pipes when people notify an officer they are carrying them to help officers avoid needlesticks) and NC’s syringe exchange law (H972 from 2016). If your office is interested, NCHRC can do roll calls or longer formalized training for your department. NCHRC also has hand-outs and posters available with more information to help spread the word. NCHRC has five years of experience training law enforcement departments on needlestick prevention and overdose prevention and our organization currently is part of the statewide Crisis Intervention Team training circuit and has trained over 100 departments throughout the state on needle-stick prevention and overdose response.

If you are interested in setting up a training or want more information on the Good Samaritan Law, NC naloxone laws, or NC syringe laws, contact our Executive Director TBA and/or 336-543-8050. NCHRC offers training free of charge.

Testimonials

“The help I got from the harm reduction program was more than just clean equipment, it was about being with people who didn’t judge me for my addiction, and who really wanted to help.”
~ Sam, a 50-year-old former drug user and sex worker in Carrboro, NC

“Too often, drug users suffer discrimination, are forced to accept treatment, marginalized, and often harmed by approaches which over-emphasize criminalization and punishment while under-emphasizing harm reduction and respect for human rights. This is despite the longstanding evidence that a harm reduction approach is the most effective way of protecting rights, limiting personal suffering, and reducing the incidence of HIV.”
~ Navanethem Pillay, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, March 10, 2009
