Join us Wed/20 for a discussion on overdose prevention in queer nightlife

LGBTQ+ nightlife community activists and health experts come together to help make partying safer.

In queer bars and clubs across the city, drag queens, venue owners, DJs, bartenders and others in nightlife are on the front lines of the overdose crisis—stepping up to educate partygoers, spread the word about naloxone, and make their nightlife spaces safer.

– Dylan Rice, Project & Communications Manager, San Francisco Entertainment Commission
