    People Shouldn't Die Because They get High - episode 1

    In this episode, Valerie Kelley-Bonner breaks down the current state of mental healthcare and harm reduction in Detroit—where crisis response too often replaces true prevention, and care is still unevenly accessible. Drawing from lived experience and frontline leadership through SOOAR and Strategic Transitions Consulting, Valerie challenges systems that criminalize instead of stabilize, and offers a vision for what real safety, dignity, and healing can look like when community leads. Recorded in connection with the Detroit Justice Center Partner Convening, this conversation centers truth, urgency, and the future of public health justice in Detroit.
