SKA

The SKA Contact Center is a drop-in and counseling center for people who use illegal substances—especially those who inject them. It is located about a 10-minute walk from the Kottbusser Tor, Schönleinstraße, or Görlitzer Bahnhof subway stations, and 150 meters from the M 29 bus stop (Glogauer Straße).

 

The guiding principles of its work are low-threshold access and support throughout the addiction process. Thanks to its approach and wide range of services, the low-threshold SKA Contact Center serves as an important point of contact, information, and support for people with drug dependencies—who are typically marked by poverty, illness, and isolation resulting from long-term drug abuse.
