OnPoint NYC is a New York City nonprofit that operates two privately run safe injection sites in East Harlem and Washington Heights. At the sites, drug users use illegal drugs under supervision. Placed at the sites of existing syringe service programs, these were America's first safe injection facilities when they opened in November 2021.
