Stigma Reduction
In the past five years we have worked in many different facilities and arenas. The one thing that reduces stigma and, opens dialogue for change is Narcan. The conversations in these settings, forms a unit of people with the knowledge needed to keep the reduction of stigma going outside the venue. People learn they are not the only one's suffering. Thats the beginning. Saving a life - Then what ?
Naloxone is a door opener for all kinds of needs, mental health, substance use, housing, food etc. We have the hook. “We are all recovering from something.”
We Carry the message
We Must Work Together
Who We Are
Hello,
My Name is Wally. I am a person in long term recovery, that has been on the front lines of the opioid epidemic. I ride a Harley, love to cook, and give my life to helping those searching for a way out of hell. I believe in truth and mission, with seeing the picture in 48 different communities. My plan is to then take it back to the round table and present my findings. People are dying. We must unite, to end the stigma and the epidemic. See you all on the road!!!
Hi,
my name is Layla.
I am a 17-year-old woman that has had my bouts with mental health and substance use issues. I am in recovery one day at a time. I love my cat Nove, and I am here to support efforts of Naloxone saving lives. I know it does because it saved my dad's life. I hope to see you on the road!!!
