Opioids Part 4: Breaking the stigma of addiction in the faith community (with Rev. Paul Bennett)
Appodlachia
In part 4 of our series on the opioid crisis in Appalachia, we talk to Rev. Paul Bennett. Rev. Bennett is a native West Virginian and Episcopal priest in Portsmouth, Ohio. We talk to Paul about breaking the stigma of addiction and normalizing harm reduction within the faith community, showing love and compassion to those struggling with substance use disorder, and how the War on Drugs was a terrible idea. This episode has it all!
