Reggie Jackson: Exchanging for Change

admin — Sat, 28 Aug 2010 02:47:15 +0000

I created this video in 2008 for “Project:Report,” a citizen journalism video contest sponsored by YouTube and the Pulitzer Center for Crisis Reporting. It was selected as a semi-finalist.

The video features Reggie Jackson, the team leader for a mobile needle exchange program that operates out of an RV in Washington, DC.

The needle exchange program, run by the non-profit organization “PreventionWorks!,” provides clean needles to drug users in order to prevent the spread of AIDS/HIV and other blood borne diseases. This is especially significant given the high rate of AIDS/HIV in the District.

Reggie is a former drug addict who has been living with AIDS/HIV and hepatitis C for over 22 years. He uses his experiences to counsel the addicts that come to the RV to exchange their used needles for clean ones.
