## Description

Queen City Needle Exchange (QCNE), rebranded as Queen City Harm Reduction (QCHR) in 2021, is a vital community initiative based in Charlotte, North Carolina, dedicated to promoting health and safety through harm reduction strategies. Established in 2016, QCNE provides essential services including free syringes, naloxone for overdose reversal, and testing for HIV and hepatitis C, making it a cornerstone for public health in the region.

QCHR operates a fixed site at 811 Eastway Drive and offers mobile outreach, ensuring accessibility to underserved populations. The organization prides itself on being a judgment-free space, where individuals can access safer consumption supplies, safer sex supplies, and vital health information. With a focus on education and community support, QCNE also provides training on how to use naloxone and fentanyl test strips to enhance safety measures among drug users.
