Weekend Edition | Father of Housing First points to success; We Heart Seattle highlights failures
(The Center Square) – On an overcast mid-October day, just inside the Third Avenue offices of We Heart Seattle, Executive Director Andrea Suarez and two of her staff members sat next to a table covered with gallon-sized Ziploc bags filled with used drug foil collected in recent weeks from parks and streets in Seattle. On an adjacent table, a “harm reduction” kit provided to drug addicts by Public Health – Seattle & King County displayed clean drug needles, wound care wipes, Narcan to reverse drug overdoses, foil, note cards suggesting addicts use drugs together to help prevent overdoses, and many other items that Suarez says are worsening the city’s drug crisis.
