ACT 4 SA @ VOCAL Texas Advocacy Days

ACT 4 SA staff and volunteers travelled to Austin to support two days of advocacy hosted by VOCAL Texas. These days consisted of meeting with legislators to discuss the importance of housing, services, and care for all, and a rally outside the Capitol to demand expanded access to overdose prevention programs and for police to stop using arrest and incarceration to “solve” public health problems. Hundreds of people from across the state attended the event, and spoke to the importance of programs that really work, like housing first and harm reduction. Thank you VOCAL Texas for having us, and thank you to everyone who attended!
