Apps
Better app (global)
BETTER App is merging harm reduction with the recovery community, instantly connecting people seeking to expand their social “recovery” network and people who use drugs to be connected to digital spotters so they don’t need to use alone. BETTER App will help people build Recovery Capital in their lives, by building social and community capital.
Digital Overdose Response System (DORS)
DORS is the Digital Overdose Response System, an App that will help protect you if you are using alone. First, you register with your mobile phone number and provide your location. Then, when using alone, you start a timer in the App. If the timer expires or you need help, the App will call for help and summon medical support if you need one or are unresponsive.
