Making a difference and expanding on harm reduction.

The Fayette County Connection Café is the new home of the Harm Reduction Alliance, which has allowed us to expand our services beyond just harm reduction, all in one place.

We couldn’t have done it without you.

This space realized its full potential through a tremendous amount of generosity and community support. We’re acknowledging our community partners and everyone who helped renovate the Connection Café, through deeds or donations, to make it what it is today.

“Fayette County has been wrecked by opioid addiction. This cannot continue to be overlooked. [Charmin Gabbard and I] had a long discussion about what she feels would benefit those suffering from addiction and mental health disorders and ideas on how to stop self-harm before it starts. The Connection Café provides harm reduction services for citizens of Fayette County affected by addiction or mental health issues. Intervention treatments early on would help the crisis Connersville is and has been facing for many years.”

— Lindsay Patterson, Candidate for Indiana State Representative District 55
