        Please use your influence to change our treatment centers for addictions AND mental illness from jails to community based care. I know we can do better, and this population doesn’t belong in jail, especially jails for profit. We need innovation, new ideas. Thanks End the stigmapic.twitter.com/cvvKrPi61C

        Can we please have more health insurances that cover rehabs and also get laws against employer backlash for seeking treatment?
