You shouldn’t be judging if folk can volunteer in your org based on wether they drink or take drugs but rather on their capacity to undertake the role 🤔this idea of being 6 months sober to volunteer is mad especially as your staff drink and their on the payroll 😳

“It is time to realise
#addiction
is neither a
#choice
nor an inherited
#disease
, but a psychological and physiological response to
#trauma
&
#painful
#life
#experiences
.....The question is not why the
#addiction
, but why the
#pain
.”
@DrGaborMate
is a truly remarkable man 💛🤓🙏
“It is impossible to understand addiction without asking what relief the person hopes to find, in the drug or addictive behaviour.”
