In New York City, what are “Overdose Prevention Centers” (OPCs)?

The privately run “Overdose Prevention Centers” (OPCs) are New York City’s supervised drug injection sites, meant to reduce deadly overdoses in the city. The OPCs provide a monitored place for drug users where an antidote can be served if needed. Also known as safer consumption spaces, they exist in Canada, Australia, and Europe and have been officially authorized in NYC on Nov. 30, 2021.
