Neoliberal capitalism has some bad consequences..... Fortunately, there are people who lend a helping hand
Very impressive image Julie! V

You tell a grim but hopeful story here.
A powerful image that hopefully motivates more change.
You are a very important chronicler.

That is a lot of needles. Glad that someone is cleaning them up. Here is a stupid question. If left laying around, do people reuse the ones left discarded in the streets? ~V~

I don't think a solution exists. Sadly.

Bravo to you for using your great skills here. People need to not take a back seat and realize this crisis affects us all... BV

A glimmer of hope, even if it only makes a small difference. Strong documentary image. "V"

A great idea that looks to be having results. Well captured, Julie. V.

What a great cause. We can all look forward to the day when maybe this won't be necessary, but it is unlikely to be any time soon.
