We provide education, information and supplies to reduce harm

Aside from drug testing, Get Your Drugs Tested also functions as a community Harm Reduction & Education Centre.

Education and awareness

We aim to educate our clients about substances and safer consumption practices. Our knowledgeable staff will answer your questions about any substances, what effects it might have, any considerations you should make, as well as how to consume it safer. With limited education in schools around safer substance use, we aim to educate our clients so they may make more informed decisions.

Safer drug use supplies, snacks and care items

On site we provide safer snorting, smoking and injection supplies that we offer as needed free of charge. We further support our local community with snacks, refreshments, first aid supplies and personal care items as needed.

We offer free Naloxone training for individuals, groups and businesses

Through our partnership with Towards the Heart, we provide training on how to administer naloxone. In the case of an accidental overdose, a person’s breathing may no longer be effective. Naloxone is a medication that can reverse an overdose and potentially restore efficient breathing. In need of a naloxone training and kit?

Training for Individuals

We provide free in-person naloxone training at our site. The training only takes a few minutes and prepares you to be a responder to an accidental opioid overdose. After your training you receive your own kit to take home. We can also replace or refill kits that are used or expired.

Training for Groups and Businesses

It is incredibly important for teams and businesses to recognize the need for Naloxone at their workplace. In emergency situations, having staff trained as overdose responders could mean saving someone’s life. We provide in person or online training to larger groups.
