Every Wednesday, people carrying plastic bags, pencil boxes and other containers filled with used syringes line up outside a street outreach site on San Antonio’s West Side.

For two hours, the Corazon Ministries outreach team operates an anonymous, one-for-one syringe exchange.

Clients turn in used needles and receive new sterile ones. They are also offered naloxone, the overdose-reversal medication commonly known as Narcan, along with condoms, bandages, cold bottles of water and a sandwich.

By the end of the exchange, a bright orange medical-waste container is filled with discarded syringes that might otherwise have been reused, shared or left in public places.
