Who we are and what we do
NEXT is an online and mail-based harm reduction program. We believe everyone should have access to the tools they need to keep themselves safe and well. If you are a person who uses drugs and you do not live near a pre-existing harm reduction program or cannot purchase supplies online, you can fill out the enrollment form below and we’ll work to get you supplies. If you live within the catchment area of pre-existing syringe access program, we’ll let you know about those in-person opportunities.
This work in Michigan is made possible by an innovative partnership between NEXT and Grand Rapids Red Project with financial support from Vital Strategies.
Packages requested in Michigan and packed and shipped by the GRRP team in Grand Rapids.
If you are a person who uses drugs and you have difficulty accessing syringes & other supplies where you live, you can begin the application process below to enroll in our mail based program.
If you have family or friends who you think should have naloxone on hand, please refer them to nextdistro.org/michigan
WHAT WE PROVIDE
NEXT and GRRP mail all the supplies you would be able to access at an in-person syringe exchange program. This includes sterile syringes, naloxone, sharps containers, alcohol pads, cottons, fentanyl test strips, condoms, and more. Once you’ve completed the (1) application and (2) contact form, we’ll request your mailing information and send you a list of the supplies we have available.
