| F990_P03_S00_L03 | Form 990, Part III, Line 3 | A Statement on the Closure of PreventionWorks from its Board of Directors, February 8, 2011. On February 25, 2011, PreventionWorks will close its operations after over 12 years of lifesaving services as a nonprofit organization supporting individuals struggling with drug use and interrelated social and health challenges. PreventionWorks has been a trailblazing effort in the nation's capital to offer a practical set of prevention and health promotion strategies, including access to sterile syringes, to reduce the harmful consequences of drug use while treating drug users with respect and dignity. Most notably, PreventionWorks has played an invaluable role in the prevention of HIV transmission, undoubtedly saving thousands of lives. In 2007, over 26 percent of women and 18 percent of all people living with HIVAIDS in the District of Columbia reported contracting the disease from injection drug use. PreventionWorks began in 1996 as a project of the WhitmanWalker Clinic. In 1998, PreventionWorks incorporated as its own organization after the U.S. Congress passed legislation forbidding the District of Columbia from using its local government funds to support ham reduction services and prohibiting organizations that received federal funding from operating a syringe exchange program, even if funded with private donations. Like most harm reduction organizations across the country, financial viability for PreventionWorks was always a challenge, but numerous private foundations and grantmaking charities and an army of volunteers helped sustain its work. In 2007, the law was changed to allow DC government funds to support syringe exchange. As a result, PreventionWorks and several other local organizations began receiving DC government funding for their prevention programs. Recent government support was critical to giving PreventionWorks the potential for staying power, by unfortunately the organization was ultimately unable to build and sustain the financial and organizational capacity worthy of its work. As a result, the Board of Directors decided to close the agency so supporters could turn their resources and volunteerism to more sustainable organizations. The PreventionWorks Board of Directors feels great sadness and disappointment toward this ending, but made the difficult decision based on financial realities. The closure of the agency marks the end of a historic chapter in the city's battle against HIV-AIDS. PreventionWorks closes with 11 dedicated staff and hundreds of volunteers. In part due to the advocacy and endurance of PreventionWorks, government funds became available for harm reduction and syringe exchange, and as a result, other organizations in Washington, DC now provide such services. While PreventionWorks made unique contributions to the District's public health system that will not easily be replaced, it is fortunate that PreventionWorks is shutting its doors at a time when there are other options for clients. Still, outreach and support services for drug users, including sterile syringe access, are not nearly to scale. In the absence of PreventionWorks, it will be critical for the government and private funders to increase their support for those organizations that can step up to fill the void. The PreventionWorks Board of Directors would like to thank the private donors that supported the organization for so many years when the government could not, and the DC Department of Health for its critical support in more recent years. The Board also salutes the past and current staff who can stand tall for having saved thousands of lives over the past 12 years and for believing that any positive change in an individual's life is indeed positive change. Even as the organization closes, PreventionWorks staff has put the clients first. Above all, we acknowledge the courage and resilience of the PreventionWorks clients themselves, who, despite the disease and stigma of drug use, have continued to persevere through their journeys of recovery in a society that has failed to provide adequate and effective resources for people struggling with addiction. |
