I would like to mention that to really support all people in need regarding recovery, we are in desperate need of a detox bed facility here in the NEK. We have people who are slipping through the cracks, who are trying to detox and need a safe place to be and be supported and coached to the next steps of their lives. They don't meet criteria for mental illness and therefore are generally discharged from the ED's. They need some time in a safe place. I am asking for the legislators put on their funding radar this great, and immediate need. 01:41:15 Tracie Hauck: Thank you TJ for everything you do!! 01:41:45 Peter Espenshade: Right on Lila, looking forward to advocating for this crucial need in the NEK. 01:42:10 Peter Espenshade: Rocking it Robert Blaise!
