the temple of harm reduction

Planning Design phase

A New Harm Reduction App

Building a harm reduction app from the ground up, in the spirit of how the work actually happens.

Most harm reduction information online is incomplete, contradictory, behind a login, or written in a tone that treats the reader like a problem. We are building a harm reduction app from the ground up, in the spirit of how the work actually happens. Plainspoken. Comprehensive. Not preachy. Always within reach.

What we’re tending

A mobile-first reference, support, and connection tool. Drug information that is accurate and current. Interaction checking. Real-time access to harm reduction services nearby. A way to reach someone if you need to. Written by the people who do this work for a living.

What we need

  • Mobile developers (iOS, Android, React Native) ready to contribute time or paid work
  • Designers who care about clarity and dignity in interface
  • Harm reduction educators who want to author the content
  • Funders who want to back the build
