A great opportunity to give a little. I’m donating the food and teaching the culinary students how to cheeseburger and fry. Any and all help here is appreciated. All proceeds to @salvationarmysf @TheWayOutSF

To celebrate six years of sobriety today, I couldn’t have asked for a more meaningful honor than to be a graduation speaker at @TheWayOutSF’s drug treatment program, and to recognize the inspiring accomplishments of my brothers and sisters in recovery. Thank you to the @SalvationArmySF’s Joseph McFee Center, @SteveAdami and @dmpletsch — and congratulations, graduates! #WeDoRecover

Do Safe Injection Sites actually help? Does the data support it? According to a study published in March of 2026, not necessarily. This is Kym Kaufmann, CEO of @RecovExcel explaining the study and it's findings out of Alberta 🇨🇦 Let's unpack. 🧵onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

This is how you solve homelessness. Get them off the drugs and everything gets better. @SteveAdami
Last year we provided over 100k nights of drug-free living. Through The Way Out, San Franciscans are finding a complete path out of homelessness and addiction and into recovery, stability, and independence. See what happens next: TheWayOutSF.org

The priority given to sober housing by @DanielLurie @kunalmodi @mattdorsey and @RafaelMandelman has allowed people in recovery to maintain their path with programs like @TheWayOutSF and that is key to their success.
“Prioritization of sober housing culminated in the recent passage of legislation requiring all new affordable-housing projects in The City to prohibit drug use on site.” This is key. As our reporting in The Voice has shown, 30% of ODs occur indoors. sfexaminer.com/news/public-h…

The people. Evan. Recovering for 16 months and 1 day. He’s kind of an all purpose player part time at my store. Today he grilled chicken for burritos. – at San Francisco, CA
