But their implementation has faced tough opposition in some of the communities that seem to need them the most. In this project, we investigated the journey of one SSP located in Austin, Indiana, a small town near the Kentucky border, which was rocked by an HIV outbreak spread by intravenous drug use in 2015. Through a combination of audio and visual elements, we\u2019ll look beyond the science of SSPs to get to the heart of these intriguing interventions. What led up to the need for an SSP in Austin? How does it function in the community? And what was and is at the heart of opposition to its implementation?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Click on the image to check out our presentation, or <a href=\"https:\/\/prezi.com\/view\/Oja7pfkqqYYDfgaw2W1M\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/prezi.com\/view\/Oja7pfkqqYYDfgaw2W1M\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-248 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/commons.princeton.edu\/ghp350-f20\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/235\/2020\/12\/IMG_0207.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1517\" srcset=\"https:\/\/commons.princeton.edu\/ghp350-f20\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/235\/2020\/12\/IMG_0207.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/commons.princeton.edu\/ghp350-f20\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/235\/2020\/12\/IMG_0207-300x222.jpg 300w, https:\/\/commons.princeton.edu\/ghp350-f20\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/235\/2020\/12\/IMG_0207-1024x759.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/commons.princeton.edu\/ghp350-f20\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/235\/2020\/12\/IMG_0207-768x569.jpg 768w, https:\/\/commons.princeton.edu\/ghp350-f20\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/235\/2020\/12\/IMG_0207-1536x1138.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/commons.princeton.edu\/ghp350-f20\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/235\/2020\/12\/IMG_0207-676x501.jpg 676w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Background image from Prindle Post.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1hcTYDwabFsOxBZFTLXZrX2ArYG-OkrWRcDp_SfHzg3c\/edit?usp=sharing\">Bibliography<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-251 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/commons.princeton.edu\/ghp350-f20\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/235\/2020\/12\/GHP-Group-1024x573.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"676\" height=\"378\" srcset=\"https:\/\/commons.princeton.edu\/ghp350-f20\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/235\/2020\/12\/GHP-Group-1024x573.png 1024w, https:\/\/commons.princeton.edu\/ghp350-f20\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/235\/2020\/12\/GHP-Group-300x168.png 300w, https:\/\/commons.princeton.edu\/ghp350-f20\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/235\/2020\/12\/GHP-Group-768x429.png 768w, https:\/\/commons.princeton.edu\/ghp350-f20\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/235\/2020\/12\/GHP-Group-1536x859.png 1536w, https:\/\/commons.princeton.edu\/ghp350-f20\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/235\/2020\/12\/GHP-Group-2048x1145.png 2048w, https:\/\/commons.princeton.edu\/ghp350-f20\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/235\/2020\/12\/GHP-Group-676x378.png 676w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 676px) 100vw, 676px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&#8212; Amy Cho, Sean Crites, and Maya V.
