Establishes overdose prevention centers to reduce accidental overdose deaths and improve access to treatment for substance use disorder.

The bill creates overdose prevention centers where individuals with substance use disorder can safely consume controlled substances under medical supervision. These centers provide counseling, drug testing, referrals to treatment services, and basic support services. The Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services will establish an advisory committee to oversee the pilot program and make recommendations. The bill also ensures that healthcare providers administering opioid antagonists in these centers are protected from liability.
