Research tends to look at burdens that policy places on clients, understating the true scope of burdens clients experience. Burdens on providers can trickle down to become burdens on clients, reducing access to services.

I'm looking for a confidential, accurate, reliable, transcriptionist (not AI and not a firm that outsources to many different people). If you have leads, let me know!

Wow. Talk about playing politics with people's lives.
Pretty damning words from @SDNYnews regarding the future of NY's overdose prevention centers: “That is unacceptable,” he added. “My office is prepared to exercise all options — including enforcement — if this situation does not change in short order.” nytimes.com/2023/08/08/nyreg…

On the frontlines of the opioid epidemic in NYS, providers in the S. Bronx are at work: giving food, information, and supplies. They're also picking up syringes and listening to PWUD. Thanks to Melissa Nieves for letting us tag along.

Replying to @scientistswrite
Have someone else read your work and you read their work. Meet regularly and give substantive and line-by-line comments to each other. Big wins for both of you. @PatriciaStrach
