@Sheri_Rogers01 @ramit And yet you didn't even come to realize that the whole rhetoric is just fundamentally untrue. She's lying in plain sight. "Masterclass" indeed. 🤯 x.com/notcapnamerica…
Please explain to me how a TikTok user is doing better investigating than every mainstream news outlet that reported on this lady’s speech? She’s a fraud.
People don’t understand that the unregulated drug supply is what is responsible for all the overdose deaths. They wrongly point to harm reduction and drug decriminalization as the scapegoats. OD deaths rates are high in states without drug decrim and harm redux.
Today my one and only hits the double digits!! Happy 10th birthday to the best part of me! Watching you continue to grow comes with a million laughs a million proud moments and some confusion as well lol. We turning up the rest of the week!
Last week PPP’s Wound Care Clinic received the Community Commitment Award from @TempleUniv! The Clinic now sees 1,100+ visits annually. This contribution goes a long way towards providing our patients the compassionate, non-judgmental care that we all deserve. Congrats Team! 🎉
Kicking off the week with a story from Jamila, a former PPP housing resident who got into recovery with the support of her case manager Naomi. All of us — including Naomi's toddler Francis — are so proud of her. "No one gave up on me.” ppponline.org/blog/jamilas-s…
“In summary, we found that enrolment in an unsanctioned compassion club was associated with reductions in any type of non-fatal overdose as well as overdoses involving the administration of naloxone.” #FreeDULF #SafeSupply #Bcpoli
Exciting milestone: This peer-reviewed paper delves into the impacts of DULF's compassion club. Creating accessible alternatives to the unregulated drug market is key in halting the ongoing tragedy. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

@viscidula @LeahJacobsPhD @PittSocialwork Wow. Very cool study. Love this interpretation in particular: “[M]obile clinics decrease crime through their impact on individual drug use and drug related behaviors – not through general ecological or provider surveillance effects associated with physical clinic presence.“
