MG Recovery

BALTIMORE, MD -- SEPTEMBER 16: Ricky Morris, center, Juanita Kane, left, and Monica Lewis, right, exchange stories about the times that they overdosed and nearly died. The trio were standing on a block where several treatment programs and health services cater to people in active addiction and recovery.
Ricky Morris leads his team from Bmore Power at Reach Health Services as they hand out naloxone to people coming for their methadone treatment.
The opioid epidemic has ravaged Black communities for decades, but only recently has the focus shifted from a law enforcement perspective to a position of a health crisis in need of harm reduction and an emphasis on recovery. Baltimore has pursued harm reduction much longer than other cities and the culture of recovery has a firmer footing in the city.…. (photo by Andre Chung for The Washington Post)
