AfterPartyPod: How Pot Can Help Recovery with Joe Schrank
Anna David
Interventionist, sober companion, Fix co-founder and former proprietor of Brooklyn’s Loft 107 Sober Living, Joe Schrank is a somewhat controversial figure in recovery circles. While he’s never been afraid to speak his mind, Schrank has just launched his most chatter-worthy business of all: High Sobriety, an LA-based “cannabis included” treatment center that offers, in its own words, “harm reduction through an innovative medication assisted program.” The first of its kind in the United States, High Sobriety is aimed at those people who Schrank feels would be dead if they had to abstain from all chemicals—that is, those who try sobriety and end up with a needle in their arm. In this episode, Schrank discusses his own sobriety, how the US is conservative in its approach to recovery and why the issue of harm reduction isn’t as simple as it first seems, among many other topics.
