Summary

This study is testing a program called Project REACH, which offers telehealth services at syringe service programs (places where people can get clean needles). The goal is to see if this makes it easier for people who use drugs to get HIV prevention (like PrEP) and addiction treatment. About 121 participants will be enrolled and followed for 6 months to see if the program is practical and helpful.
