The Gaïa Association during lockdown

By Elisabeth Avril
English

This article relates how the CSAPA, CAARUD, methadone bus and Gaïa Paris lower-risk consumption rooms worked with drug users during lockdown linked to the Covid-19 health crisis. It deals in particular with the difficulties encountered with residents living near the Rooms, but also respecting the barrier gestures observed by users. In this unprecedented moment, a very vulnerable part of the population was able to return to care. Finally, emergency accommodation has proven to be effective for a wandering population, as the first approach to a care solution.
