Philadelphia mayor opens new drug recovery center
費城市長啟用全新藥物康復中心
In January 2025, Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker unveiled the Riverview Wellness Village, a landmark facility designed to support long-term addiction recovery.
2025年1月，費城市長雪瑞兒．
Located on a 19-acre site in the Holmesburg area, this city-operated village serves individuals who have already completed inpatient treatment, providing a bridge to self-sufficiency.
帕克揭幕了「河景健康村」(ㄏㄜˊㄐㄧㄥˇㄐㄧㄢˋㄎㄤㄌㄧˊ)，這是一座旨在支持長期成癮康復的指標性設施。
Beyond offering stable housing for up to one year, the center provides essential services including healthcare, job counseling, and behavioral health support.
此計畫初始容量超過300個床位，並計畫翻倍，代表了市府在城市健康基礎建設上投入了5400萬美元。
Mayor Parker intends for the facility to be a national model for addressing the opioid crisis and ending open-air drug markets.
除了提供長達一年的穩定住宿外，該中心還提供包括醫療保健、就業諮詢及行為健康支持等必要服務。
While many officials praise the initiative as a crucial expansion of the city's safety net, some critics express concern regarding its proximity to the city jail complex, fearing it might stigmatize residents.
帕克市長希望將該設施打造為解決鴉片類藥物危機及終結露天毒品市場的全國典範。
Nevertheless, the administration maintains that the site is an efficient use of public land, marking a bold, comprehensive approach to tackling addiction and promoting wellness in the community.
儘管許多官員稱讚此舉是擴大城市安全網的關鍵，但也有批評人士擔心其鄰近市監獄綜合區的位置，憂心這可能使居民蒙上汙名。
