Drug Injecting Services in Canterbury Trust (DISC) are Aotearoa’s Leading Harm Reduction Service.
DISC is at the forefront of harm reduction in Aotearoa, offering the most comprehensive range of health and harm reduction services in the country to enhance the health and well-being of people who inject and use drugs.
We offer hepatitis C screening and treatment across Te Waipounamu, Te Manawa Taki and Te Tai Tokerau, alongside a national drug checking service with regular, ongoing clinics in Ōtepoti Dunedin, Ōtautahi Christchurch and Te Whanganui-a-Tara Wellington and periodic clinics in other locations.
We also provide general health services at Rodger Wright Centre and DIVO.
We also partner with several Hauora Māori services and community-based providers to expand our community reach.
As a peer-based organization, we advocate for people who inject and use drugs, working to eliminate stigma and foster harm reduction knowledge. We provide a safe, non-judgmental space and are trusted as a valuable source of support, information, and advice within our community.
We are a strong, connected network of passionate organisations. Want to join us?
