Its never ceases to amazing me how a wonderful lunch can open a door for change to happen. Food becomes a real living tool for dialogue to begin and for Hope to arrive. Today we were able to connect with a young woman on the corner, we asked her if she needed anything else other than lunch because we were really concerned for her. She paused for a moment, looked up and said she wanted to go to a detox to get off Heroine. We let her know that we had connections to Helio Health and their Cody Team who could come right out to start the process. Our friend agreed we called our friend Jacob from Helio and he was over to our location within 25 minutes to do an intake. One of the things that starts to happen when the ball starts rolling is cold feet and a change of mind, our friend started to say that she was having a tooth issue and needed antibiotics before she could go. Our friend forgot that Dr. Lehmann was with us and I said Doc can take care of that right now, thats when Jacob pulled up from Helio. Doc assessed her tooth gave her some antibiotics to take for the rest of the week and then we introduced her to Jacob and made the connection. Jacob was assessing her and then going to see if there was a bed available today for her. This is just one of many out of the box scenarios that happen on the streets for our friends. I always tell them my connections are your connection my friends are your friends, Relationships Minimize Risk for our friends and with your continued support all these out of the box scenarios become possible. Thank You
