Two years ago, @Alex_Norcia joined @Filtermag_org to report mainly on THR. He did so just astonishingly well, with scoop after scoop, and editing besides. Now he leaves for new pastures.
Thank you for everything, Alex - it's been such a pleasure! And we'll see you around! 🙏

We're SO glad to welcome harm reductionists @ChristineRdrgz & @MorganGodvin to the board of The Influence Foundation—the nonprof behind Filter—joining @MyHarmReduction @dianemgoldstein @godfreywill & Phil Hur.
Huge thanks: Archie Brodsky, who retires after serving since day 1.
Welcome to the team, @KiranSidhu41! Have loved working with you as a freelancer - so glad we get to make it more regular!

We are so terribly sad to learn of @davidthekick's passing. Alongside his other writing (like "The Weight of Air") and advocacy, David wrote for Filter and supported us in other ways. We loved working with him. He inspired us, and will continue to inspire others. ❤️💔

Jon, living in a tent in downtown Portland, is one of many who have switched from injecting black tar heroin to smoking fentanyl "Blues."
“There’s positives and negatives for me," he explains to @MorganGodvin & @kristen_mph:

“This is a watershed milestone,” said Melissa Moore of @DrugPolicyOrg. “If we want to save lives, reduce criminalization, and curb racial disparities, we need comprehensive, innovative, and forward-thinking approaches like OPS.”

"Surely it would make sense for every smoker who benefits from syringe access to be offered vapes as well?"
