Our guest on this episode is Dr. Haner Hernández. He is a person in long-term recovery who has had an illustrious career, spanning more than three decades, that has included teaching at various universities, working directly and in a consulting capacity for state and federal agencies, performing one-on-one recovery support, and so much more. We hear about the racism Haner encountered at a young age when his mother moved their family to Springfield, MA and how his youth informed his later work. Dr. Hernández goes on to discuss gang life, substance use, exposure to the prison system, finding recovery, and some of the amazing work he has done over his long career. This episode brings it all; an inspiring first-hand account of street life, drug use, and recovery, exploration of racial and economic disparities, and the story of a person finding their voice!
