Atlanta Harm Reduction Coalition, Inc.

In the fall of 1994, a few passionate citizens came together through their concern of used syringes being improperly disposed of in the streets of Atlanta.  A year later, these grassroots efforts became a 501 (c)(3) organization, Atlanta Harm Reduction Coalition, Inc.  Throughout the last twenty-five years Atlanta Harm Reduction Coalition, Inc. (AHRC) has operated the premiere syringe services program in the state of Georgia helping to reduce risks of HIV, Hepatitis C, and STIs.
