Brandywine Counseling and Community Services and The Division of Public Health are proud to partner and offer syringe exchange services throughout Delaware. BCCS’ Syringe Services Program (SSP) serves those caught in the cycle of addiction, helping them avoid sharing needles. The program protects users and their loved ones from contracting HIV, Hepatitis C, and other infectious diseases, and meets clients without judgment to helps them explore available options for lessening their exposure to disease.
Through coordinated outreach efforts, the Syringe Services Program provides an unyielding harm prevention program through access to sterile syringes. The program also provides a connection to substance abuse and mental health treatment.
