Elaine Pozycki: Turning Grief into Advocacy for Better Drug Policies

We need to stop it before we have to get to that point.
Elaine Pozycki’s story is a heart-wrenching yet inspiring tale of a mother’s love and determination. After her son became addicted to opioid pain pills prescribed for a sports injury, Elaine found herself in a nightmare she never saw coming. Tragically, her son lost his life to a heroin overdose. But instead of letting grief consume her, Elaine channeled her pain into a mission to prevent other families from experiencing similar heartbreak.
In this episode of Steppin' Out Radio, Elaine shares her emotional journey from losing her son to becoming a fierce advocate for legislative change across the United States. She founded a nationwide advocacy group that tirelessly works to reform drug policies in every state. Elaine discusses the urgent need for alternatives to opioids and how recognizing the signs of addiction early can save lives.
Her story is not just one of loss, but also of unwavering determination to make a difference. Elaine's passion for change and her drive to protect others from the devastating effects of opioid addiction make this episode a must-listen. You'll walk away with a deeper understanding of the opioid crisis and the importance of legislative action in combating it.
