A SAFER SUPPLY THROUGH SCIENCE

PA Groundhogs is a provider of drug checking services and drug supply intelligence and monitoring infrastructure. We employ mass spectrometry technology to develop regional profiles of the illicit drug supply for public health agencies, harm reduction organizations, treatment providers, clinicians and people who use drugs. Through our affiliation with the Center for Forensic Science, Research & Education (CFSRE) in Horsham, PA—a federally certified Schedule 1 lab—we provide forensic-grade drug sample analysis that gives people who use drugs, and the organizations that serve them, unprecedented transparency into what's actually in the supply. 

We are one of the only operational mail-in drug checking programs in the United States that accepts whole street drug samples for full mass spectrometry analysis. This allows us to analyze changes in drug purity as well as composition, and identify new psychoactive substances — proactively alerting communities about dangerous contaminants, strong batches, and novel analogs.
