Description

SisterSpace is the first and only women-only overdose prevention site in Canada. The program provides women who use substances with a safe and supportive environment where they can use substances in the presence of peer support workers who are trained in overdose response. To describe program activities and report on early impacts, a three-month developmental evaluation was conducted. The evaluation began as soon as SisterSpace opened in May, 2017.
