CrossRoads of Southern Nevada, NV’s largest drug and alcohol addiction treatment center, today announced they are offering free COVID vaccines to all their residents. The vaccines are being provided free of charge by The City of Las Vegas, and currently do not include the J&J vaccine but do include Moderna and Pfizer.
“We all have to do our part to end this pandemic,” said Dave Marlon, CEO of CrossRoads, “and that includes helping to get those who can’t help themselves vaccinated. The more people we can vaccinate at CrossRoads, the less burden it puts on other health care sites, and we are able to more effectively help residents get back on their feet and plan for a life without substance abuse.”
So far 31+ residents have been fully vaccinated with both doses. CrossRoads is the only detox center in the state offering vaccines to its residents.  CrossRoads of Southern NV offers a variety of in-patient detox programs, and with access to vaccines, can and will continue the work they are doing to help Nevada’s most underserved population – the homeless and those suffering from SUD (substance abuse disorder).
“The city of Las Vegas is thankful for our partnership with CrossRoads. It is important that all citizens are able to access a Covid-19 vaccine in a safe place within their community,” said Jordan Moore, from the Department of Youth Development & Social Innovation with The City of Las Vegas. “While we are moving the needle, it is due to our great community partnerships. Thank you again to CrossRoads for the life changing work you carry out every day, we look forward to continuing our impactful work together.”
