Needles: ‘Community support has been overwhelming’
Continued from Page 1A
So far, 30 Naloxone kits
have been provided. The kits
also include gloves, a face
shield, alcohol pads and a wal-
let card that explains good
Samaritan laws.
“It’s a great add-on to our
program,” McNickle said.
“Even if you’re not there to
exchange needles, you can get
training at no cost.”
Information about reha-
bilitation opportunities is also
available at the exchange
events. Since October, they
have received unconfirmed
reports of three people who say
they have entered a rehabilita-
tion program.
“That’s always our goal
— to connect people to the
resources and help them get out
of the situation that they’re in,”
Strickland said. “We treat them
with human kindness. There’s
such a huge stigma with those
who struggle with abuse.”
Outreach in Seaside
The county will also con-
duct exchanges outside Provi-
dence Seaside Hospital begin-
ning Feb. 1. The hospital
agreed to facilitate the events
through the end of the pilot
program in April.
“It’s proven to reduce the
number of patients among

exchange in Astoria.
those who use the drugs,” said
Providence spokesman Mike
Antrim. “It’s definitely a vul-
nerable population, and it’s a
good partnership with Clatsop
County Public Health.”
The county at one point held
exchange sites across the street
from Quatat Park in downtown
Seaside, but city officials were
concerned about the optics,
McNickle said. The park is
located near tourist attractions
and hotels.
“The city of Seaside had
some issues with that spot, so
in order to honor those con-
cerns, we searched for a differ-
ent location,” McNickle said.
The upcoming events are
scheduled to take place Thurs-
day from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.
in a parking lot near the emer-
gency room. The location is
designed to allow people to
participate in the exchange
from their cars, which has
become a common practice at
the Astoria site.
“This is a huge step forward
and we are very excited about
this partnership,” McNickle
said.
County
commission-
ers unanimously approved
the pilot program — funded
through a $50,000 donation
from the Friends of Colum-
bia Community Health — in
August.
The outreach was met with
skepticism from law enforce-
ment officials, who questioned
its effectiveness and expressed
concerns that it may lead to
other drug policies that enable
abuse.
But those officials —
namely Sheriff Tom Bergin and
District Attorney Josh Marquis
— agreed not to attempt to
block the program.
Positive feedback
Those hosting the events
have received mostly positive
feedback, save “a few head
shakes,” Strickland said.
“The community support
has been overwhelming,”
Strickland said. “I have a lot
of gratitude for these people.”
McNickle plans to pres-
ent results to commissioners
once the program expires in
hopes the county will make
the exchanges permanent.
The program has shown the
scope of drug abuse in the
county.
“It doesn’t necessarily
speak to what we’re doing. It
speaks to the need,” Strick-
land said. “It’s bittersweet
to see how successful it has
been.”
