As Snohomish County works to control the heroin and opioid
epidemic in the county, citizens may not understand just what it takes to find
solutions to this problem.
Recently, InvestigateWest, a nonprofit journalism
organization, began publishing a series of podcasts that document the county’s
heroin/opioid prevention efforts under the title “Finding Fixes.” The podcasts
tell the story of how the county is trying to work towards solutions from the viewpoints
of the participants including the officials developing programs and the victims
who are trying to control their addictions.
On Thursday November 8th, Sno-Isle Libraries will
be hosting a public meeting that it advertises as a local debut of the podcast
under the title “Behind the Scenes of Finding Fixes.” At the meeting, citizens
will be able to talk to the producers and hosts, Anna Boiko-Weyrauch and Kyle
Norris, as well as local leaders, healthcare providers and community members
who have been featured so far in the first 5 episodes of the podcast.
The event will be held on November 8th from 6:30pm
to 8pm at the Sno-Isle Service Center at 7312 35th Ave NE, Marysville.
You can listen to the podcasts online at https://www.findingfixes.com/ or through
your podcast provider.
