['Helen Redmond', 'Tessie Castillo', 'Samrat Chowdhery', 'Stanton Peele']
Filter
It is a staggering loss for her family, friends and the harm reduction and drug-user communities.
With harm reduction as her North Star and a master’s degree in public health under her belt, Louise got shit done.
She helped build the North Carolina Users Union (NCSU) to advocate for drug-user rights, and served as its executive director while also playing a leadership role in national groups.
And I will finish.”—Jess Tilley, executive director, New England Users Union“An internationally recognized advocate for people who use drugs, Louise was feisty and brilliant.
It was an honor to share the stage with her at the North Carolina Survivors Union’s Overdose Awareness Day in 2021.
