Changes at Change Point

Change is here — and care continues.

Northern Nevada HOPES is transitioning Change Point Risk Reduction Support services to our trusted community partner, Northern Nevada Harm Reduction Alliance (NNHRA) — an organization founded by two former HOPES employees who share our deep commitment to harm reduction and community care.

While Change Point will no longer be operated by HOPES, NNHRA will continue offering vital harm reduction services, including the Safe Syringe Support and mobile van, right from our parking lot at both clinics.

HOPES will still support the community with sharps disposal at 5th Street and rapid HIV, Hep C, and same-day STI testing through our clinic. Just walk in and ask to be added to the schedule — we’re still here for you.

Additionally, free Narcan (naloxone) is available at both HOPES pharmacy locations. Anyone can walk in and request it — no appointment or prescription needed.

Risk Reduction Support saves lives. In 2024, programs like Safe Syringe Support and access to naloxone helped reduce overdose deaths nationwide by 27%, highlighting their critical impact.

We’re grateful for the years of impact Change Point has had and confident that NNHRA will carry this important work forward with compassion and dedication.
