We investigated whether forced displacements were associated with nonfatal overdose, naloxone access, and SUD treatment access among PWUD in San Francisco, California.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We conducted a cross-sectional survey of 790 PWUD from September 2024 to September 2025. Participants reported number of forced displacements by police, security guards, or other officials in the past 3 months. Outcomes included past 3-month overdoses, naloxone access, and SUD treatment. We conducted separate multivariable modified Poisson models with robust standard errors for each outcome, adjusting for age, gender, race, housing status, past 3-month opioid use, and interviewer.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In the past 3 months, 70% of participants were forcibly displaced at least once and 36% were displaced 20 or more times. Of those forcibly displaced at least once, 65% had their belongings taken by those displacing them. Eleven percent experienced an overdose; 62% were provided with naloxone; 33% received any SUD treatment, and 18% were currently receiving any treatment. Those forcibly displaced 20+ times had 1.99 times the prevalence of overdose of non-displaced participants (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.01-3.93). Participants who had their belongings taken had 1.59 times the prevalence of nonfatal overdose of those who did not (95% CI: 1.00-2.53). There was no association between forced displacements and receiving any SUD treatment, but participants who were forcibly displaced 20+ times had a lower prevalence of currently receiving any treatment (adjusted prevalence ratio = 0.44, 95% CI: 0.27-0.72).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Our findings demonstrate forced displacements have significant health harms and negatively affect treatment services.
