South Carolina Syringe Exchange

Nonprofit, Challenges Inc and Carolina Wellness and Recovery of Powdersville offer syringe exchange and Medication for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD) under one roof. With our office location just outside of Greenville, we can assist those across the Upstate of SC. We also provide mobile SC harm reduction in other parts of the state. Visit our Locations page to learn more about South Carolina syringe exchange. 

At Challenges Inc., our mission is to reduce the damage caused by the war on drugs so that people who use drugs can live safe, healthy lives in our community.

Challenges Inc was born out of the belief that some things are easier to prevent than to treat. In 2017 we saw a need for harm reduction services in South Carolina, as there was no access to sterile using supplies at that time. With rising rates of HIV and Hepatitis C in SC, we sought to bring these services to those in need. Against all odds, and with little help, we created the first syringe services program in SC.  

We believe in using compassion as the number one engagement tool to provide non judgmental, non coercive services. We seek to continue expanding these services across the state. Follow us on social media to find us in the community and stay up to date on harm reduction in South Carolina.
