For those who have lost someone to substance use or addiction.

 A change in leadership at Broken No More/GRASP (Grief Recovery After a Substance Passing). Introducing Dr. Tamara Olt, the new Executive Director.

There is a belief that those of us with an opioid addiction, that we are powerless over our addiction. That is a myth. We are not powerless. But we appear powerless because the prohibition laws of this country rob us of our power.

The 2018 GRASP Retreat and Conference was a success both in numbers and in personal participation. We reconnected with old friends and met new ones and we learned so much! It was wonderful. Thank you to our planning committee, amazing speakers and our participants.

We’ve got a broken drug education system and we’ve yet to fix it. Decades of under-education and over-criminalization hasn’t made drug use and sales decline, nor has it made drug use any safer.
