A Light in the Dark: Health Services for Drug Users in St. Petersburg

by Open Society Institute

This multimedia piece documents the work of Humanitarian Action in St. Petersburg. The organization operates a mobile clinic on a refurbished bus that travels to areas where drug users live and buy drugs. For the last decade, the bus has been a light in the dark, offering clean needles and syringes, alcohol swabs, condoms, psychological counseling, blood testing, basic medical services, and information about safer injecting, HIV, and hepatitis.
