In August 2024, our incredible funders from **Vital Strategies** visited our lab to learn more about the drug checking process. Vital Strategies is dedicated to advancing public health by promoting evidence-based, locally driven policies and practices. Thanks to their generous support, we are able to expand our outreach to underserved communities in North Carolina, particularly those often excluded from *vital* health services. It was a pleasure to showcase our work and share our progress with such passionate advocates. We deeply appreciate their continued support and enjoyed hosting them!
