As long as we culturally believe that these people are disposable, that they are unworthy humans, that they are some kind of blight, that they're a problem and that we're not really going to get anywhere.
What happens when you mix consumer finance expertise with a deep dive into the world of addiction recovery? You get a compelling conversation featuring Erica Sandberg on this episode of 'Rehab Confidential'. Hosts Joe Schrank and Amy Dresner tackle the hot-button issue of harm reduction and its implications for alcohol addiction. The episode kicks off with a discussion on a recent American Cancer Society study linking alcohol to cancer, sparking a debate on why alcohol still lacks a warning label.
They also ponder whether the Biden administration's commitment to science will extend to drug policy reform. Matt Rinklin from Release Recovery Foundation joins in to share his journey with a higher power and how his organization helps underserved communities access treatment. Erica Sandberg then dives into her strong opposition to harm reduction, emphasizing the need for more accessible treatment options. The conversation also touches on the impact of alcohol on homeless populations and debates the effectiveness of safe injection sites.
To wrap things up, they explore the role of coffee in the recovery community. This episode is a thought-provoking mix of personal stories, expert insights, and lively debates that will leave you questioning societal attitudes towards addiction and recovery.
