Spokane, Wash. – The Spokane Regional Health District (SRHD) is hosting three virtual Town Halls for the public to learn more about and discuss the Opioid Treatment Services (OTS) Feasibility Study:

• Monday, June 17, 5-6 p.m.
• Tuesday, June 18, 7-8 a.m.
• Thursday, June 20, 12-1 p.m.

Utilizing Zoom, interested community members can learn more about the feasibility study and ask questions. SRHD’s Dr. Alicia Thompson, Administrative Officer, will present at the Town Halls.

Approved by the Board of Health on April 25, 2024, the feasibility study would assess the possible benefits and drawbacks of separating the OTS division from SRHD.

A feasibility study will allow SRHD to examine all of the details necessary, assess its merit, ensure the outcome would benefit the community, SRHD employees and SRHD as an organization, and determine if there are other, private opioid treatment programs interested in the potential of taking on OTS.
