  • Tony Duffin
    Tony Duffin, the CEO of the Ana Liffey Drug Project, said that stigma against drug users is “very serious”and that there needs to be a health-led approach to responding to drug use, rather than a criminal approach.In this episode Tony talks to us about his upbringing in London, his Irish roots in Wexford, his family life and his work over the last 30+ years in harm reduction. Duffin said that Ireland needs to change its laws around drugs to help address this stigma.“Stigma is a huge issue. It does prevent people from coming forward to access treatment and rehabilitationand other supports.Duffin said that “In countries like Portugal, where they implemented the model of decriminalisation, which is essentially avery good diversion scheme, they have seen stigma towards people who use drugs disappear. It took about 10 years, 15 years of treating it as a health issue before people realise andstart to say, ‘they’re not criminals, they’re people who need a bit of help’.”Duffin added that he believes there is an important distinction between “drug use” and “problematic druguse”, To follow Tony's work and the work of Anna Liffey Drugs Project click below linkshttps://www.facebook.com/share/pSzw67HovzfHTVKv/?mibextid=LQQJ4dhttps://www.instagram.com/analiffey?igsh=cjk5dXh2ZHlkeDlk Hosted on Acast.

  • Dawn Russell
    In this Episode Trina speaks with Dawn Russell of the Anna Liffey Drugs Project about her work as Head of Services.Dawn says she’s motivated because she “cares deeply about people who aremarginalised, who are judged and left out of our society”, and she is “driven towork for them to improve their lives.”“...I have watched with pride as Ireland proved to the worldand to ourselves that we are a compassionate, inclusive and caring societythrough the marriage equality and abortion rights referenda. Now in Ireland, it’stime for people who are battling with addictions to be understood and to bebrought into our society, from the shadows and alleyways where they are forcedto live. People with drug and alcohol addictions have value, they have rights, andwe have to work for them to be recognised. This is what motivates me every day,”says Russell.To follow the Dawns work and the Anna Liffey Drugs Project go to https://www.facebook.com/share/pSzw67HovzfHTVKv/?mibextid=LQQJ4dhttps://www.instagram.com/analiffey?igsh=cjk5dXh2ZHlkeDlk Hosted on Acast.
