Many communities don't want needle exchange programs because they are afraid of attracting drug users, because drug users walking around openly makes people uncomfortable, and because an exchange program decreases the value of the surrounding property. Frankly, these reasons are both selfish and logically flawed:
1) The drug users were there anyway, they just weren't visible because they weren't going to a needle exchange. Addicts don't move to areas with exchange programs, they move to areas with the best and cheapest drugs, and if an exchange program happens to be there they will use it.
2) Needle exchange programs save lives by stopping the spread of AIDS and hepatitis. Even if all the reasons above were true, they would be a small price to pay for a person's life. Any considerations of community atmosphere or property values should take a back seat to this - humans, even drug addicts, are made in the image of God and their worth is immeasurable.
