It’s Friday, and I am SOOOOO proud of the unstoppable work of the team at @ugm. When much of the country is staying home, our men and women are serving safely on the front lines to give comfort & emergency relief. We are seeing new guests now struggling due to #COVID19 layoffs

It should also be pointed out that despite our best intentions (or not), doctors, pharmacists, nurses, and a whole range of front line workers may be seen as part of an oppressive, punitive, rigid system of addiction care and not be viewed in a positive light. @SafeSupplyProject
