Episode 11: Real-Life Policy Implications of Treating Addiction as a Moral Failure Ft. Jessie Dunleavy

On this episode of Tapping into the Human, Alex is joined by Jessie Dunleavy, author of "Cover my Dreams in Ink" and an advocate for drug policy reform. The two discuss the story of her son, Paul, and his struggles with addiction in an unjust 'justice' system. Jessie and Alex highlight the need for lawmakers to place focus on evidence-based treatment and strategies that will reduce the risk of overdose vs the outdated laws that currently exist.
