#1,831- Can Portland be saved?

How does the price of freedom measure against the cost of safety and stability? We wrestle with this question as we journey into the stark reality of homelessness and addiction, through the lens of Anthony Saldana's tragic story. Anthony, who moved from Las Vegas to Portland in 2018, navigated life on the streets and a crippling drug addiction, until succumbing to his struggles. His narrative sheds light on the devastating risks of fentanyl use and the dangerous freedom that often supersedes the need for safety among the homeless.

As we unfold Anthony's tale, we also delve into the harsh truths that permeate the world of homelessness. Addiction and mental health issues, all too common among the chronically homeless, complicate the path to recovery, sometimes rendering housing offers ineffective. The uncomfortable coexistence of maintaining societal order through law enforcement while providing compassionate care is explored. We emphasize the critical necessity for addressing addiction and mental health issues as a prerequisite to tackling homelessness. Join us for this compelling discourse on the intertwined challenges of homelessness, addiction, and mental health.
