Community Support Services
VIP provides a range of community support services and supplies designed to reduce overdose, prevent the spread of diseases, reduce stigma, and engage vulnerable people through a person-centered approach. Supplies include fentanyl/xylazine test strips, naloxone, syringes and safe sex and wound care kits. When possible, VIP’s community support services team distributes food, clothing, and basic hygiene kits. Community support services are provided via street outreach and community partnerships.
Early Intervention Services (EIS)
VIP’s Early Intervention Services (EIS) offers free HIV testing, counseling, substance use assessments, and referral to treatment for consumers with a history or current substance use disorder. We focus on community testing through collaboration with other agencies and in high-risk areas throughout New York City’s five boroughs.
