In NSW Australia there is a Drug Summit underway. It is exploring better ways to respond to the experience and effects of substance use. This episode is a story about the Uniting Church who helped lead the establishment of the first Drug Summit two decades ago and is still leading the Fair Treatment campaign to fight for a better way for the community to respond to drug use.
This episode is a ChangeMakers story – through many voices it tells the story of the people who fought for that first Drug Summit, why they did it and what they achieved. It paints a picture of a different way that our society could respond to something that too many of us don’t want to talk about or would prefer to push under the carpet – substance use.
This episode was recorded in 2018 and is re-released today in support of the Fair Treatment’s campaign. You can find out more about that campaign here – https://www.fairtreatment.org/
