Beattie

When the MSIR opened Beattie was the fourth person to register and would use the room most days. Now, with the help of his ‘medicine’, a housing program and trusted medical advisors, he’s working towards the life he wants. Vigilance about his health and fear of overdose keep him coming back to the MSIR.
