Stories can offer us ways to strengthen our resilience and build community in challenging times. This morning, we’ll come together to tell some of the stories of our ancestors and our lives, and share the wisdom we’ve learned from them. [Photo by Karen Armina]

The Share the Plate recipient for January 19 and 26 is CAYA Clinic. CAYA Clinic, Dane County’s first non-profit harm reduction psychotherapy practice, is a place for people who use drugs and people with mental health concerns to access counseling, moderation management, harm reduction supplies, mental health and trauma therapy. Their mission is to meet people where they are and utilize evidence-based harm reduction therapy techniques to reduce drug-related harms, prevent overdose, and promote the empowerment of people who use drugs. CAYA provides services to all regardless of health insurance status. This organization was nominated by Dannee Livingston-DeTienne, in honor of their spouse Rene, who helped to found CAYA.
