Harm Reduction Through Community Engagement Act of 2023

This bill amends registration requirements for opioid treatment programs under the Controlled Substances Act. It requires programs to comply with new community impact standards, including avoiding locations within 0.5 miles of schools or daycares, justifying patient need, promoting telehealth, appointing community liaisons, and tracking local service requests. Programs must also develop engagement plans, establish community advisory boards, and implement relations plans to address neighborhood concerns like public drug use or loitering. These requirements apply directly to opioid treatment programs seeking or maintaining federal registration to provide maintenance or detoxification treatment. The bill mandates annual reports to Congress on treatment performance and community engagement practices.
