Thank you for reaching out to Remedy Alliance with your drug checking TA request. In order to help us help you, please tell us a little more about your program, where you are in the drug checking implementation process, and your specific ask. We are a small program and are often at capacity so may not be able to meet your TA request immediately. To help us triage TA requests, we prioritize community based organizations and harm reduction programs, organizations run by and working within communities of color, and organizations that have meaningful involvement of people who use drugs.

Have a spectrometer in your possession

Have at least one staff/technician identified

Currently offer immunoassay test strips (FTS, XTS, BTS, etc)

What type of technical assistance are you seeking at this time? *

We are just starting to think about drug checking and need help with the beginning stages of planning and conceptualization

We have secured funding and are starting the implementation process. We need help with the beginning stages of implementation.

We have an FTIR instrument and have identified a technician. We need hands-on technical support to train technicians.

We're not planning on using advanced technologies for drug checking at this time, but we've got questions about immunoassay test strips/legal questions/partnership questions/interpretation of results we've seen somewhere/something else

Other:

How are you involving people who use drugs in your drug checking program in a meaningful way? (We like AIDS United's definition of meaningful involvement.) *

How are you prioritizing BIPOC leadership and involvement in this intervention? *

What is your timeline for beginning to offer point of care drug checking services? *

Is there anything else you would like us to know?
