A number of people associated with the Unsanctioned Overdose Prevention Site gathered on Friday, May 5, 2023 behind Henley Arcade just across from Victoria Hall.

It’s the second Friday members have been at the location.

When the Unsanctioned Overdose Prevention Site started they stated they would be out from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. each Friday with a red tent.
