Breaking Down Barriers: Insights from Recovery Fest and Harm Reduction Efforts

We don't care what your social security number is. Anything we can do to take some of the stress off of people, anything that will take away some of those reasons why people don't seek treatment.
Ever wondered how community events can help in the fight against addiction? In this episode of 'Courage to Hope', host Tony Lagreca chats with Anne Marie Winchester and Andrea Campbell about their work with Recovery Fest and a harm reduction center. These initiatives offer a supportive environment where people can talk about addiction without judgment. Recovery Fest, a collaboration between three organizations, provides resources, games, and music to foster a sense of community and support.
Anne Marie and Andrea discuss how these events and centers create safe spaces for those struggling with addiction, emphasizing that help is available and accessible. They also touch on the importance of Boston's infrastructure and high-quality education in combating addiction. Plus, they explore strategies for tracking the distribution of funds from opioid epidemic bankruptcy cases. The message is clear: no one should suffer in silence.
Tune in to hear about the impactful work being done and how you can get involved.
