D.C. opioid overdose deaths surge past 500 in worst year on record, via @jennaportnoy washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2024/…
D.C.'s first sobering center, which opened last year in response to the worsening opioid crisis, has exceeded 1,000 admissions in just over three months. Great read from @jennaportnoy explains how: washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2024/…

D.C. opioid overdose deaths surge past 500 in worst year on record wapo.st/49wDSEe
Good reporter (@jennaportnoy), overall good article (albeit a week late by the WaPo), but...why say the audio "appeared to show [Yesli Vega] agreeing with a speaker who questioned whether women could become pregnant by rape." It's crystal clear. bluevirginia.us/2024/03/saturd…
I'm excited to share that I'm joining the team at The Charlotte Observer as public safety and courts editor. Thank you to everyone who helped me learn or offered support during 9+ years in Richmond! @theobserver
I am moving to Chicago this weekend. Reflecting on my 10 years in the District, especially with spring at our heels, and had to do a 'D.C. dream day' (RIP). Here she is, in all of her ambitious and highly unattainable glory. I love you D.C.!!!!
It’s easy to treat the media as a punching bag. But look to the nation’s local newsrooms. For little money or recognition, reporters in 2023 stood up to power brokers who tried to bully them into silence, exposed corrupt officials and even saved lives. Proof, from every state:
D.C.'s first sobering center, which opened last year in response to the worsening opioid crisis, has exceeded 1,000 admissions in just over three months. Great read from @jennaportnoy explains how: washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2024/…
Great inside look from @jennaportnoy on D.C.'s first sobering center -- an effort to get people addiction treatment instead of bringing them to emergency rooms as D.C.'s opioid crisis worsens washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2024/…
Trauma victims in D.C. will soon be able to receive blood transfusions from paramedics at the scene, before they reach the hospital, @jennaportnoy reports. Officials believe the effort could help as many as 400 patients a year: washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2024/…
Longtime DC Gov Flack, Dora Taylor-Lowe on @FamilyFeud introduces herself as working for “best mayor in the country @MayorBowser “ @DCHumanServ Spoiler alert: Her family came from behind to win $20K @nbcwashington
A Council proposal from Mendelson would create a new fund for Nats Park maintenance and upgrades -- the kind of commitment the Nationals have long sought from D.C.: washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2024/…
@colleengrablick @DCist @wamu885 thank you for the care & thoughtfulness you always put into every single article + our conversations. your coverage of DC harm reduction was brilliant & deeply needed & i’m excited for whatever’s next for you 🖤
and lastly i want to apologize for that one time i wrote that fedex field was in loudoun county, virginia instead of landover, maryland, thus sparking a lively comment section on r/washingtondc debating DCist’s bona fides as a local news source. that was totally my bad.
