South Carolina Harm Reduction

We provide harm reduction services through our non-profit Challenges Inc, and medication for opioid use disorder at our practice, Carolina Wellness and Recovery of Powdersville . Our office is located just outside of Greenville where we can assist those in surrounding areas. Our mobile unit allows us to meet people where they are in the Upstate, and our mail-based services expand our reach across the entire state of South Carolina.

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 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, 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.
