Needle exchange programs operate in multiple locations throughout Pima County. Needle exchange programs provide a place for individuals to obtain clean syringes (often in exchange for their dirty syringes), and other safe injecting supplies. In addition, needle exchange can provide an important link to care including substance use treatment, and infectious disease testing.
Pima Helpline is a community-driven and community-made resource. We realize that everybody needs support for mental health, substance use, or addiction at some point in their life. We also know that looking for treatment can be confusing and scary.
We believe that it should be easy for Pima County residents to find help for mental health, substance use, and addiction. To achieve this, we created Pima Helpline as a centralized place to find mental health and addiction treatment, services, and support.
