CDHD Distributes COVID-19 Tests at Several Rural NCW Library Locations

East Wenatchee, WA – Chelan Douglas Health District (CDHD) will distribute limited quantities of at-home COVID-19 test kits through select NCW Library locations across Chelan and Douglas counties.

Testing kits will be distributed at the Bridgeport, Cashmere, Chelan, Entiat, Leavenworth, Manson, Peshastin and Waterville libraries beginning February 1, while supplies last.

CDHD recommends checking an individual library’s hours and then calling the library ahead of time to confirm test kit availability or visit www.ncwlibraries.org for a distribution site near you. Test kits cannot be reserved over the phone and are available on a first-come, first-serve basis. NCW Libraries requires masks for all patrons entering its libraries.

NCW Libraries' mission is to connect the people of North Central Washington to vital resources and opportunities that foster individual growth and strengthen communities, said Interim Director of Branch Operations Tim Dillman.

“NCW Libraries is proud to partner with CDHD to distribute testing kits in our rural libraries,” Dillman said. “We are committed to doing all we can to promote the health and safety of our communities.”
