Intention to Initiate Harm Reduction Vending Machine Use Among People Who Use Drugs: A Cross-Sectional Study of Prevalence and Correlates

= 190. Results indicated that 30% of participants were aware of HRVMs and 69% expressed intent to use one. Intention to use a HRVM was less common among people who identified as Hispanic and more common among people whose most common source of drug use supplies was a syringe service program. Perceived barriers included not knowing the HRVM locations, lack of transportation, and surveillance concerns. Conversely, perceived facilitators included access to needed supplies, free supplies, and 24/7 access. While awareness of HRVMs was low, future intent to use one was high, suggesting that HRVMs are an acceptable form of service delivery among PWUD.
