On Tuesday, the ribbons were cut on America's first state-sanctioned overdose prevention center (OPC).
America's first state-sanctioned overdose prevention center held its ribbon cutting on Tuesday in Providence, Rhode Island, soon offering a medically supervised space for users of illegal drugs.The facility is the first in the U.S. to be authorized and allocated funds under state law, following a 2021 Rhode Island law permitting the establishment of OPCs.
'The department requires a certificate of occupancy and a clearance certificate from the fire marshal before it can schedule a final walkthrough. That walkthrough will include a review of the site's final operating policies to insure that the policies meet State regulations and patient safety standards. Once they are in compliance, RIDOH will issue a license.'Newsweek has reached out to the Rhode Island governor and attorney general's offices via email on Wednesday.
