Safe-Injection Facilities
Our WSMA advocates for the development and implementation of pilot
safe-injection facilities in Washington state that are designed, monitored
and evaluated to generate data to inform policymakers on the feasibility,
effectiveness and legal aspects of safe-injection facilities in reducing
harms and health care costs related to injection drug use. (Res B-4 A-23)
