OUR COALITION

SAFE RX MENDOCINO

In the fall of 2015, a coalition of concerned community members, medical professionals, educators, law enforcement, and community-based organizations formed Safe Rx Mendocino. Safe Rx Mendocino takes a community approach when sharing new information on harm reduction methods, spreading awareness and engaging local residents in our mission. We meet via video conference on a monthly basis to check in with our partners, present new projects and share progress reports.

To join our coalition, call us at 707-472-2312 or email
