This whole executive order is so awful with open efforts to institutionalize houseless folx. And this blatant effort to kill SAMHSA funding for harm reduction prevention and intervention efforts in it is also infuriating.
Harm reduction saves lives, and it’s evidence-based. Period. Full stop.

🚨 URGENT RESPONSE CALL 🚨

We’ve launched an open letter.

Our newest pub is out! Here, we used EMA to examine the moment-to-moment association between drinking and subsequent problems, and if emotional functioning changed the strength of this prospective relationship among a hazardous drinking sample of young adults. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/author...

🔔BREAKING🔔
The NSF has frozen all research grant awards—cutting off life-saving science midstream and demanding ideological screenings for future funding.
This is censorship disguised as oversight.
Here’s how you can help us spread the word ➡️🧵(1/3):

From 2023 to 2024, drug overdose deaths dropped a stunning 24% in just a year from 114k, to just 87k, nearly 30,000 lives. This is almost entirely attributed to a Biden Administration program providing free Narcan.
Naturally, Trump and RFK Jr. just ended the program: www.cdc.gov/media/releas...

Thank you!! 💖 Couldn't be in this spot without you
After a day full of jitters, a week's worth of caffeine, years of work, and what feels like a lifetime of unprecedented times, I am officially a master of science!! Now to catch up on a month's worth of rest 😅
🚨 I have been working with several addiction scientists and clinicians through the Addiction Science Defense Network (www.npscoalition.org/projects/add...) to craft a statement of concern about recent executive orders and actions that can be shared with members of congress.
Great news: NIH postbac program is recruiting again! If your grad school plans were affected by program cutbacks or admissions freezes this year I highly encourage you to apply, this could be a perfect opportunity. Please repost.
