Okanagan Indian Band Harm Reduction, in partnership with First Nations Health Authority, presents: New Free to Use Harm Reduction Vending Machine

We’re excited to announce that our new, free-to-use harm reduction vending machine is now available right outside the Social Development office! This machine is fully stocked with essential health and safety supplies to support you and your loved ones in addressing the toxic drug crisis and preventing overdose.

• Naloxone Kits – Help prevent overdose in an emergency.
• Safe Sex Supplies – Protect yourself and your partner.
• Water Bottles – Hydration for health and wellness.
• Pregnancy Test Kits – Free and private testing options.
• Fentanyl Test Strips – Check for the presence of fentanyl in substances to reduce risks.

Access to these supplies is free, anonymous, and available 24/7 for anyone in need. We’re here to make sure everyone has the tools they need to stay safe, healthy, and supported.

📅 Stay tuned for upcoming events planned for this November as we recognize National Addictions Awareness Week. Keep an eye out for more details about activities in our community. Let’s come together to learn, share, and support each other in creating a safer space for all.
