Andrea Suarez - Seattle's Fentanyl Crisis

Episode 74 Published 1 week ago
Description

Andrea Suarez, founder of "We Heart Seattle", claims that Seattle doesn't have a homeless problem, it has a serious fentanyl problem. Why is this an important distinction? For Andrea, it comes down to where we, and our elected officials, decide to focus our resources. Will more affordable housing slow the rampant theft, sex trafficking, and overdoses that plague Seattle? Does low-barrier housing really give addicts a chance to get clean, or do these tiny homes just become taxpayer-funded crime centers? Andrea has some tough-love opinions that come from years in the trenches cleaning up Seattle's public spaces and helping addicts on their road to recovery. She has a lot of passion for this city and some insights that are hard to hear.
