OUR MISSION & VALUES

A Reliable Fentanyl Test Strip!

DanceSafe fentanyl test strips can quickly and reliably detect fentanyl and most of its known analogs – helping people make safer, more informed decisions. 

Manufactured by the US-based company WHPM, these strips use an antibody with high specificity to fentanyl and its analogs, making them one of the most accurate harm reduction tools available.

Fentanyl is a powerful synthetic opioid that has driven the sharp rise in overdoses across the US. Testing can reduce risk and support community overdose prevention efforts.

We are peers educating peers, serving our community for the last quarter century.

Our on-site and digital services have impacted countless lives through peer education, direct outreach, and resource provision for people who use drugs and their communities. We’ve distributed free condoms, earplugs, and fact-based educational literature at thousands of events all over the country, and conducted hundreds of thousands of reagent tests as part of our free on-site drug checking services. Our harm reduction initiatives have prevented an unknowable number of medical incidents related to the consumption of substances.

  • Five people stand close together behind a table covered in a black DanceSafe-branded tablecloth and a variety of harm reduction supplies. There's a yellow DanceSafe-branded canopy above them, with windowpane outlines on the back wall, and two orange 5-gallon jugs on the right side of the table. The people are all smiling, wearing a mixture of black and yellow DanceSafe-branded clothes for the most part, all lighter-toned skin and all wearing sunglasses. White festival tents are visible in the distance.
  • Three people stand in front of the DanceSafe table inside the black canopy. The person on the left is has light-toned skin and is wearing an open poppy-patterned cream colored scarf and sand-colored shorts, with short curly brown hair and sunglasses on. The person to their right has light-toned skin and is wearing an orange shawl over a blue v-neck shirt and peach-colored shorts, wearing a black, blue, and light orange fanny pack and holding a black water bottle. They're wearing a black cowboy hat and smiling at the person on their left, as they're presumably friends. Behind them is someone in the background with their back turned, also wearing an orange wrap and a bucket hat. The two people in front are standing behind a black table covered in DanceSafe harm reduction supplies, including many colorful pamphlets and a large 5-gallon orange water jug. Behind the table is someone with medium-toned skin wearing a white cami top and olive green harem pants, with her pink-streaked dark hair up in a half bun. Past her, behind the water jug, is a man with medium-toned skin wearing a black DanceSafe shirt and black sunglasses, leaning towards the water jug.
  • The shot is a slanted aerial view of a blue and white patterned tablecloth on a table of harm reduction supplies. Two orange containers of Gatorade are in the foreground, one of which has a light-toned hand pressing down on its lid. The person whose hand it is is barely visible wearing a black and yellow DanceSafe shirt. Various other harm reduction supplies like orange earplugs and water bottles are scattered across the table, and you can see green grass on the other side of it as well as a red lawn chair behind the person.
  • Four people sit behind a DanceSafe table, each wearing either a neon yellow or neon green DanceSafe shirts. The person on the left has dark-toned skin and black hair that's short on the sides and longer on top. They're sitting with their arm on the chair of the person to their right, who has medium-toned skin and is leaning to the right holding up shaka hands, with short black hair that's been put up and appears to have a headband over it. The person to their right has dark-toned skin and a yellow mohawk and is standing up, holding up two peace signs. The person to their right has medium-toned skin and curly black hair that's been put up, with clear glasses. All four of them are smiling. Harm reduction supplies are scattered across the yellow tablecloth in front of them, and an abstract, colorful mural is visible in the background behind them.
  • Two people sit at a table across from each other. One of them, on the left in the foreground, is wearing a turquoise and peach colored shirt with flamingos all over it, with short brown hair that's longer on the top and medium-toned skin. The person sitting across from him is a woman wearing a floppy white and black striped sun hat and a red and black checkered circle scarf, with some gold bracelets. One of her hands is resting on the table and she seems to be kneeling out of view. The person in the foreground is holding something in his hands, possibly a pill, and the woman across from him has a DanceSafe drug checking pamphlet open in front of her. A white wall is behind them, and they're working on a table covered in a black plastic material with some other drug checking supplies around. A blue and black tapestry is visible in the background.
  • Three people sit behind a table. It's clear that the photo is old (it's from 1999!), and there's a white poster on a white wall that reads "DanceSafe!" in navy blue letters with a rainbow of letters spilling out underneath "safe." Barely legible text written on blue paper above the sign reads "Avoid fake ecstasy." A cream-colored lamp sits on the left hand side of the table. The leftmost person has light-toned skin and a buzz cut, wearing a black shirt and reflective sunglasses. Next to him is a person with light-toned skin and short blonde hair, wearing a white tank top and leaning over the middle of the table, smiling. To their right is a person with dark-toned skin and short, curly orange-toned hair, wearing a black shirt with an illegible graphic on it. Various papers and supplies are scattered across the table they're sitting at.
  • A white DanceSafe reagent bottle sits on a black textured tablecloth, with a small clear bottle with a white label that reads "Marquis" to its right. A white paint palette is in front of it with the silhouette of a red micro-scoop lying on top. A strip of cream-colored tape runs from the foreground to the middle of the background on the right hand side of the palette, and a DanceSafe instruction sheet is barely visible, blurry, behind the reagent bottle. A blue and orange tapestry is blurry in the background.
