RMA 133: The Prop 110 Debacle: A Deep Dive into Oregon's Legalization Experiment and the Nationwide Impact on Recovery
We are BACK! This week, we delve into the recent repeal of Proposition 110 in Oregon—a pivotal move that has sparked extensive debate and concern within the recovery community. We’ll explore how Oregon's challenges with drug legalization have not only affected local recovery efforts but also cast a long shadow across the nation, influencing perceptions, policies, and the recovery movement at large. Join us as we unpack the complexities of this issue, share insights, and discuss the broader implications for the recovery movement across the United States. Whether you're directly affected by these changes or deeply invested in the recovery community, this episode promises a comprehensive analysis of the current landscape and what it means for us all. Tune in, turn on, and drop by Castle Greyskull for some recovery talk with your favorite hosts.

If you’re in trouble with substance abuse and need help, reach out. There are thousands of people who have put problems with addiction in their rear-view mirrors and you can be one of them. While we neither endorse nor condemn any particular program, the sheer number of available AA and NA meetings suggest that reaching out to those organizations would be a good first step, (but maybe not the last step), on your road to recovery.
