Description

Prevention Point Philadelphia (PPP) is a multi-service public health organization dedicated topromotinghealth, empowerment,and safety for communities affected by drug use and poverty.

Using a harm reduction approach, PPP offers low threshold, culturally sensitive, non-judgmental services to address the health and social service needs of people who use drugs, hormones, and who do sex work in Philadelphia.

PPP promotes harm reduction through sterile syringe exchange, mobile medical care, referrals to social services, and prevention case management services.

PPP manages several Drop In Center related services and programs, including the Drop in Center, the Main Building meal program, Drop In Case Management, Public Benefits Access and the Identification Assistance Project, the Public Restroom Initiative, the Mail Service, Safe Space, and several additional co-located services, such as an Art Project, Hygiene Resources, and PPP's Clothing Bank.

The Drop In Services Department was created last year to bundle the services most frequently accessed by People Who Use Drugs, and in particular, People Who Inject Drugs, in an effort to create the highest quality low barrier access point for PWUD / PWID to be able to access the full gamut of harm reduction, prevention, medical, behavioral health, and survival and social service resources within the larger organization and community.

Strategic goals for the Drop In Department over the next 2-5 years include supporting implementation of PPP's One Stop Shop approach for PWUD / PWID to ensure access to prevention services, medical treatment, and survival resources, and further supporting the Drop In Center's growth as an integral access point in the community that provides support to overcome the individual, provider level, and community and structural barriers experienced by PWID by employing a harm reduction approach that meets people we serve where they are in approach, as well as literally and geographically by offering a complex range of survival, harm reduction, testing, and medical and social services for PWID via the Drop In.

The move of the Drop In to new separate space, even in transitional, represents a further unique opportunity to create the first space of its kind in the city, a recreational space where services can be accessed, but where people who use drugs and / or are in recovery can share space and socialize without necessarily accessing help.

The Director of Drop In Services plays one of the most pivotal roles in the organization, managing the initial access points for thousands of individuals.

At leasta bachelor's degree in public health, social work, psychology, or a related field.
