The Huron County Health Unit continues to work with its partners on a Harm Reduction - Needle Exchange program.

Goderich Mayor Kevin Morrison says the program has been going for three years in Goderich, and there are also similar programs in Clinton and Seaforth.

He adds all of the communities experience more problems in the summer.

Morrison says the health unit works with communities, medical partners and the OPP to not only address the immediate issues of addiction, but also helping people get into some form of long term treatment.
