SHOW—which stands for Street Health Outreach & Wellness—is a Street Medicine program that brings medical care, behavioral health resources, harm reduction, and material goods to New Yorkers who are unsheltered or living on the street. Services include:

  • Basic evaluation of symptoms or health concerns, and treatment including wound care
  • Screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment for substance use disorders, including connection to medication-assisted treatment and additional support
  • Overdose training & Narcan kit distribution
  • Hygiene kits, reusable bags, snacks & water


The goal of the SHOW program is to help patients identify their health and housing goals, and work with them on the pathway towards those aims.
