Millions of tax dollars a year go up in smoke. In this instance-quite literally! here is a breakdown of where that money goes:

Budget Allocations & Contract Scale
Overall Harm Reduction Budget:
The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health allocates roughly $31.5 million annually toward its broader harm reduction framework. The vast majority of this budget funds staff payroll, medical case management, substance use treatment referrals, and high-cost items like Naloxone (Narcan) overdose kits.

Individual Campus Budgets: A prominent example of localized spending is the Skid Row Care Campus (co-operated by Homeless Health Care Los Angeles), which receives approximately $26 million a year from the LA County Department of Health Services. This facility integrates safe smoking kit distribution alongside clinical care, hygiene services, and needle exchanges.
