Ep 196: Rethinking Addiction, Drug Policy, and Family Support with Jane Clair Tyner
In this episode I talk with Jane Clair Tyner, communications manager at End it for Good, a non-profit which advocates for health-centered approaches to drug use and addiction. After losing her oldest son to addiction, Jane Clair has become a vocal advocate for educating the population about drugs, addiction, and treatment. She talks about the policy failures resulting from the war on drugs and the gross disparities caused by drug policy, the problems of harsh punishments, and the need for harm reduction and regulation. We discuss how to best convince people to treat drug use as a health problem and why communities, especially Christian communities, play such a vital role in helping people overcome addiction.
